❓ What is Curry made of? 🍛

• 🌿 Murraya koenigii - Curry Leaf - is the Flavor Powerhouse!
• 🌿 Curry leaf, also known as curry patta, is a beloved ingredient in Indian kitchens, prized for its aromatic, oil-rich leaves.
• 🌿 These tiny green leaves bring a burst of flavor to dishes, often used fresh or quickly fried in butter or oil to unlock their full potential. In some recipes, they are toasted or oven-dried just before use for an extra punch.
• 🌿 Traditionally, curry leaves are enjoyed by diabetics in southern India for their health benefits.
• 🌿 The plant also graces you with small, fragrant white flowers, followed by showy purple fruit - making it as delightful to the nose as it is to the taste buds!
