    Curry leaves powder

    I wanted to share this podi here for a long time. Even though this is a staple in our house, i somehow missed to share it here. Finally i made quite a few powders yesterday specially for blog. Will share all those soon.

    The curry tree (Murraya koenigii) is a type of tree that is also known as karivepallai, karivembu, karivepaku, or kadipatta. It is a native of India and is mostly found in hot climates.

    Apart from having a strong odour and a pungent taste, curry leaves are high in vitamin A, vitamin B, vitamin C, vitamin B2, calcium, and iron. By adding curry leaves to your meals, you can treat dysentery, diarrhoea, diabetes, morning sickness, and nausea.

    About this Recipe

    Curry leaves powder can be used to season rice, curries, vegetable side dishes, lentil broths, and beverages. It is used to flavour South Indian dishes such as sambar and rasam. It can also be used to flavour spicy chutneys.

    This can be served over some rice and a drizzle of ghee. You can have it with idli or dosa too.

    Curry leaves have a similar flavour to asafoetida, another essential ingredient in cooking in places like Tamil Nadu and Kerala. It also has a more herbal flavour, similar to basil or kaffir lime.

    Urad dal :
    When cooked, urad has an earthy flavour and an unusual mucousy texture.

    Black Pepper :
    Peppers distinct flavour complements almost any savoury dish, as well as some sweet dishes. If salt helps to bring out flavours, black pepper makes foods more assertive.

    Dry Red Chilli :
    Dry red chilli is a condiment that enhances the flavour and colour of food. It contains medicinal and homoeopathic properties. We provide red chillies that are uniform in shape and size. It is mostly used to season foods. The chillies have a strong flavour.
