Both are poured over curd and used in Sri Lankan sweets; kithul has the smokier, more caramel flavour.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I serve it with curd?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSpoon thick buffalo curd or Greek-style yogurt into a bowl and pour two to three tablespoons of treacle over the top. That is the everyday Sri Lankan dessert.
