Nan Bread
Sri Lankan cuisine is accompanied by either Nan bread or rice in the way that most American meals contain potatoes and most Chinese meals contain rice.
Interesting cultural thing I noticed was that you could order something like Nan bread at a restaurant and they would bring you several of these pancakes. You just ate as much as you wanted and whatever you didn't eat they just threw back on the pile for the next customer. Completely unhygienic and gross but I guess when starving is a very real concern it makes sense.
