Curry leaf tree
is a small deciduous tree. Most Indian cuisine cannot
do without the subtle flavouring of this highly aromatic
leafy spice. Curry leaf grows profusely throughout mainland.
It is commonly found in forests as a gregarious undergrowth
along the foot of the Himalayas, from the Ravi to Sikkim
and Assam, besides Bengal, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra,
Kerala, Karnataka, Orissa and Andhra Pradesh. The trees
are also now maintained in homestead gardens, as in Kerala,
or on leaf farms as in Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka
and Orissa. The western world is fast taking enthusiastically
to Indian curry leaf, especially those who prefer their
food to be tangy without being too hot. |
