Curry Leaf Oil
Introduction to Curry Leaf Oil
The curry plant, scientifically known as Murraya koenigii, thrives in tropical climates like India and Sri Lanka and extends throughout the Indian subcontinent, including the Himalayas and Burma. This aromatic shrub from the Rutaceae family is cherished for its medicinal attributes. In Indian cuisine, curry leaves are essential for adding flavor to dishes such as curries, vegetables, fish, meats, and soups.
