If there is one ingredient that is synonymous with the region it comes from, it is the curry leaf. This herb is a staple in Southeast Asian dishes like curries, dals, and soups and has a distinctive flavor from South India. Curry leaves aren't the most important flavor in cooking, but their subtle flavor is hard to miss and gives dishes a deeper, more robust flavor. Curry leaves are aromatic herbs that are utilized in cooking in South India. The glossy, teardrop-shaped, vibrant green leaves measure approximately one and a half inches in length. They are also known as "sweet neem leaves" and are produced on the curry tree, which belongs to the citrus family. These fragrant leaves have been compared to anise and lemongrass for their distinct, pungent flavor and lemon scent.
