I wanted to get my mum something a little different for Mother’s Day and she loves her home made currys as she is always trying out different ones so I came across hop and roll and thought it would make a fab present for her. I was worried as I ordered it quite last minute (the week of Mother’s Day)and worried it wouldn’t get to my mum in time but it did and arrived 2 days before Mother’s Day even better!so my mum was over the moon on Mother’s Day for her gift! She’s going to use it when we can socialise again and can have some friends in the garden and will be cooking up a Sri Lankan feast! I can’t wait! Thank you Rosh for getting it delivered so quickly and your quick response to my email your service is amazing.Many thanks will buy from you again!

I ordered this starter kit with pan and was thoroughly impressed. The instructions were easy and clear and I must have done something right as, apart from the first one where the gas stove wasn't quite high enough, every single one got wolfed down leaving only one for me! I thought that perhaps the pack that makes 20 hoppers would be too much, but no. I think I could have cooked them all night long and they would have been eaten. I served them as the 'carb' with a curry and the spongy loveliness in the centre acted to mop it up! I'm going to try again soon and try the egg hopper. But frankly I wouldn't care what was on them..... buy the kit, you won't regret it!

Buying my chef husband anything to do with food is always tricky...he knows it all etc...
But he was genuinely excited to open the hopper kit! Relief!
We spent the evening in the kitchen making the devilled potatoes and the Pol Sambol....and of course fermenting the batter!
Paired with a delicious curry that hubby rustled up it was a delicious evening!
Possibly our best lockdown meal and something we could both get involved with!
The instructions we super clear, ingredients perfectly portioned and the flavours spot on....
We even used the left over batter to make breakfast Dosas the following morning.
Highly recommend.

I've never made hoppers before and was excited to finally find an all-in-one kit (I got the Christmas hamper that came with pan, hopper kit, potato curry kit, sambol kit, and fish rolls). I'm a rubbish cook but determined to learn to cook Sri Lankan food.
Despite all my doubts and reservations, we managed to make some absolutely delicious egg hoppers with very tasty sides. It all turned out so well. The fish rolls were so nice!!
I bought a second hamper as a gift and was glad the kits come so nicely presented.
A nice touch that Rosh emails afterwards to check everything has gone well.

This was incredible. The rapidly increasing popularity of Sri Lankan cuisine in London in recent years has been a joy. But I never would’ve thought making delicious hoppers at home on demand whenever the craving hits would be possible. For one, it needs a few simple yet essential things to come together. Thankfully Rosh has put all these together in a neat bundle, available at your doorstep. The instructions are clear, and Rosh was super responsive on doubts/questions. We had a lovely Sunday brunch and look forward to an equally lovely Monday breakfast. Don’t miss this kit. 👌🏼

For my sons 22nd birthday I ordered the hopper kit as a birthday present along with the Arrack cocktails as he loves cooking and I must say this went down very well.
He has been to Sri-Lanka many times and has sampled Hoppers and tasted Arrack!
Rosh's instructions were spot on and we had a fun evening making hoppers and egg hoppers for his friends.
He thoroughly enjoyed his evening and Rosh delivered the kits on time for his birthday.
Thank you Rosh.
Looking forward to meeting you one day soon in your pop up store.
Definitely recommend you to my friends.

Finding authentic hoppers in the UK is extremely difficult - to be able to purchase a kit to make them is even harder! Was so thrilled to find this and just knew I had to get one as a gift for family. It's gone down really well and helped bring a taste of Sri Lanka back to our dinner table. Will be definitely ordering again and looking forward to pairing it with the wonderful arrack cocktail kit. Rosh was very easy to contact and helped make the delivery process really efficient.
I would most definitely recommend to anyone!

I just wanted to say how impressed I was with the hoppers. I have a Sri Lankan wife whose family I wanted to surprise by making hoppers for them. I expected the surprise alone would be welcome but did not count on us loving the hoppers as much as they did. It was such a treat and better than I could have imagined.
I have nothing but praise for the detailed instructions and quality of the ingredients, and it may have even convinced my mother in law to dust off her pans to make string hoppers for the first time in year.

Thanks so so much for this lovely lovely review!!!!

In "Far Eastern Odyssey" Rick Stein describes hoppers as "great fun but sadly not easy to do" - fear not however, because these Hopper kits take away the problem and allow you to make amazing, crispy hoppers ideal for delivering the eggy mix with the sambols of your choice in a really painless way.
Best enjoyed where everyone gets to make their own, swirling the batter around, pouring in the egg, and then decorating them with sambols and chutneys to create flavour.

Having first tasted egg hoppers on holiday In Sri Lanka in 2019, I was very excited to buy a kit from Rosh to recreate them in my own home. The kit came with very helpful and easy to follow instructions and I was very pleasantly surprised how well the hoppers turned out. The children really enjoyed having a go too and we had enough batter to have more the following day too, the family were very happy! Many thanks Rosh!

Have always found it hard to find good Sri Lankan food here but this kit solves the problem. If you’re looking for a fun activity plus some delicious hoppers then look no further. We enjoyed following the instructions (easy to do) and making our meal (we also made a curry to go alongside). There was loads left over for brunch the next day too! Thanks again Hop and Roll!

I remember eating hoppers in Sri Lanka and when I read about Hop and Roll in the Observer, I tried to make my own- epic fail!
So I was delighted that when I bought the kit from Hop and Roll that they worked out beautifully each time - and they bring a smile to whoever tries them! Def. worth giving these a go : )

The hamper was amazing! Was very easy to use and if you ever have any doubts, rosh is just a message away to help you! I give this 10/10, because it’s so easy to use and worth your money. The first bite took me straight back to SL because it tasted the same. Hats off to rosh for making this accessible to us!

We love our travels in Sri Lanka and what a great find this was for my husband for Christmas especially during this current time. The instructions were easy to follow and we made some great egg hoppers. Really perfect kit as a gift or even for yourself for some delightful Sri Lankan memories.
