Tooting Mama’s guide on how to use fresh curry leaves in your cooking

I have been using fresh curry leaves in my cooking ever since I can remember. My mum always had a stash of curry leaves, fresh and dried stored in her kitchen. And just like her, fresh curry leaves are a mainstay on my spice shelf.  But I have started to notice that fresh curry leaves are going mainstream and are turning up in all sorts of dishes, not just your favourite Indian curry. If you want to know how to use fresh curry leaves, here’s my guide on how to use fresh curry leaves in your cooking.

How to use fresh curry leaves in your cooking

Curry leaves are generally used in Indian and Sri Lankan cooking and are often incorporated into the initial stages.

The best way to use fresh curry leaves is in the early stages of cooking. Take a pinch of the leaves, fresh or dried, and add them to the hot oil along with the whole spices, chilli, followed by onion, garlic and ginger.

When the leaves hit the hot oil, there is a burst of fragrance – it’s a nutty, smokey yet hugely pleasant smell that adds depth to the overall flavour of the dish.

Curry leaves, which is better, fresh or dried?

If I can I will always try and get fresh curry leaves, the smell and taste is so much stronger than dried curry leaves.

If you can only find dried curry leaves, then in general double up on the quantity.

How do I store your fresh curry leaves?

If you have managed to get your hands on a bunch of fresh curry leaves, you will want to try to extend their shelf life for as long as possible.

I have found the best way to store fresh curry leaves is to pop them into a ziplock freezer bag, seal, and store in the freezer, and use as and when needed. Simple and easy.

Where can I buy fresh curry leaves?

If you are in the vicinity of an Indian or Sri Lankan grocery store, then beat a path to their door!

My local Sri Lankan grocer has a stash in the fridge, and I will buy three or four packs at a time and store in my freezer.

Curry leaves, the dried variety are starting to appear on supermarket shelves. But if you are looking for fresh curry leaves there are a few online retailers, like Amazon, who sell fresh curry leaves.

What if I can’t find fresh curry leaves? What else can I use?

I’ve looked around for advice on suitable alternatives and advice ranges from kaffir lime leaves, basil leaves, bay leaves, lime zest.

Curry leaves have a unique, and distinct fragrance and flavour, adding a richness to Indian and Sri Lankan cooking. Personally, if I couldn’t find curry leaves, I’d cook without, and make the most of the other spices I have in my cooking. (But that’s just me!)

Recipes with that use curry leaves

  • Slow cooked Sri Lankan chicken curry
  • Tooting Mama’s South Indian dhal
  • Kale mallung
  • I haven’t tried these yet, but Ottolenghi’s selection of recipes with curry leaves look great
  • Eat Like A Girl’s dal pancakes with curry leaves
  • Great British Chefs have a good selection of recipes that use curry leaves

Retailers selling fresh curry leaves

If you are struggling to find fresh curry leaves locally, here are a few online retailers who will deliver fresh curry leaves to your door. Please note I’m not recommending these shops, they just happen to sell fresh curry leaves.

  • Amazon sells fresh curry leaves
  • Asian Foodie, sells fresh curry leaves delivers across London and across the UK
  • Spices of India is an online retailer specialising in Asian ingredients, including fresh curry leaves
  • The Asian Cook Shop sells a wide variety of Asian ingredients, including fresh curry leaves

    I have a small curry tree. My husband trims it and puts the leaves in the kitchen. Thank you, now I have an idea what to do with them.

I was at the @britishlibrary food season ​​​ I was at the @britishlibrary food season ​​​​​​​​​
It’s an annual event with a host of great speakers, if you love food, a serious foodie this is your event! 

I pulled up my  seat to listen to @chetnam, @poppy.Otoole, @rockandsquash talk about social media - the good, bad & the ugly. Chaired by the wonderful Itamar of @honeyandco

Here are my takeaways from the talk:

1. Working in food can help you build a career that you want - for Chetna it’s spending time with the kids, for Poppy not slaving in restaurants 70 hours a week
2. Find a niche and own it. I mean OWN it, slay it, mine your niche, become that expert, once you’re there you can branch out
3. Pick your channels and own them. I’m focussing on Instagram and my newsletter 
4. Do followers convert? Not as well as mainstream media - TV, press, radio…yup thinking cap on for ideas to pitch! 
5. The bad…it can be hard dealing with the negative feedback. And trolls. They are out there and if you are on a platform it’s it’s gonna happen. I got called a meat eating hoar… well if you’re gonna take me down getting your spelling right! 
6. What does engagement success look like? For me it’s building a supportive community of Sri Lankan food lovers. Taking Sri Lankan food and flavours to a wider community through recipes that taste fantastic. And, attracting clients who want their stories told though photography & video.
7. What’s the future? Who knows where TikTok will be, Instagram is more and more like TikTok. New players keep chomping at the heels of the established platforms. Writing platforms like Substack are emerging, And let’s not even talk about AI….

Conclusion: Create content. Own your niche, build a community, the rest will follow 😘

Go get you’re palate rattled at rambutan_ldn. T Go get you’re palate rattled at rambutan_ldn.

That’s what I did last week with two of my Sri Lankan girlfriends. @deegibson2017 @missteasmith 

Rambutan is London’s newest Sri Lankan restaurant a mere shuffle from London Bridge Station, right opposite Borough Market. 

Opened by @cynthia.uma, author of the prize winning Rambutan cookbook.

Rambutan serves up sharing plates of Sri Lankan food. 

What did we eat? 

Devilled cashews, Gundu dosa, red prawn curry, buttermilk fried chicken with pol sambol, broccoli varai, dhal. 

What did a drink? The Rambutang cocktail (now obsessed with Arrack!)

💫 A full write up went out to my newsletter community.

🌟 You can now read it on my website (link in bio)

Was it good? Hell yeah? 💃🏻

Should you go? Yup!

Go get your palate rattled!  @rambutan_ldn

This Easter we were back in Paris, and headed back This Easter we were back in Paris, and headed back to the 11th. One of my favourite meals to have in Paris is Os a  Moelle au four and a steak, specifically an entrecôte cooked saignant. And Chez Denis is my spot for that. 

For our venture into the 11th, I wanted to taste something fresher, lighter, different.  I found Clamato a seafood restaurant just around the corner from a cute wine bar, with crowds that spilled into onto the street.

I probably wouldn’t have ordered the white asparagus. But I saw a lady at the bar, and I wanted what she had. 

What arrived in front of me, was a work of art, and tasted incredible. I’d never dream of pairing white asparagus with fish roe and a garnish of toasted hazelnuts. Ingredients that seemingly shouldn’t work together just did, to perfection.

I’m not usually one for dessert, I don’t have a sweet tooth. I was tempted by the yoghurt sorbet. I’m delighted I relented, and gave in, because each mouth was creamy deliciousness. 

I’m now tempted to make my own yoghurt sorbet creation. I’m thinking perhaps a take on Falooda, that Asian milkshake like drink made with rose syrup…my little trip to Paris has inspired me back into the kitchen!

Rosh, is the Queen of Hoppers. Growing up, in our Rosh, is the Queen of Hoppers.

Growing up, in our house eating hoppers was a big deal. 

Hoppers were only served on super special occasions. 

Hoppers/appam. Or as some people call them Sri Lankan pancakes. With the growth of high end Sri Lankan restaurants, hoppers are enjoying their moment in the spotlight.

Mum nor Dad made hoppers, having hoppers meant piling into the car and going out for a slap up Sri Lankan meal, in Rayners Lane or further afield to Wembley.

I’ve always been intimated at the thought of making hoppers. So much so, I’ve never tried. 

I’ve always left it to the chefs, the experts who can wield the hopper pan with adeptness and skill to get the crispness of the edges and spongey, softness of the centre which are the essential qualities of a perfectly made hopper. 

I had the pure joy of photographing Rosh @hop-roll while she made hoppers.

As a female founder of @hop_roll she juggles motherhood and her law career, while helping people learn to make hoppers through her hopper kits and classes. 

Rosh is part of a burgeoning movement of the Asian, Sri Lankan diaspora who are taking ownership to showcase their food, culture and identity. 

As a photographer I wanted this shoot to capture the spirit of Rosh and the finer detail of making a hopper, and the  process of making this iconic #srilankan dish.

When @polboy.ldn told me he was planning a recipe When @polboy.ldn told me he was planning a recipe e-book to raise funds for Sri Lanka I was only to happy to be involved. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I am honoured to be part of the Resilience. I am honoured to have my humble Love Cake recipe sitting alongside some the great Sri Lankan culinary names @dee_williams_82 @hop_roll @malis.cooking @kolamba.ldn @paradisesoho @spice_and_light and me.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
For many Sri Lanka is a paradise holiday destinations, golden beaches, palm trees, yoga, wellness, kick back and sup on arrack cocktails. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
For me it’s where my parents come from.  Parents who have left to build new and  better life for their family and send support back to  their families in the mother land.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The cookbook, with recipes from Sri Lanka's diaspora raises funds for vulnerable communities in Sri Lanka to support them during the country’s ongoing economic crisis. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Recipes, whether passed down through word of mouth or written down, have been a source of resilience for diasporic communities. When adjusting to a foreign land, the ability to eat and cook food that reminds you of home can be a crucial lifeline. Right now, it is the people on the island of Sri Lanka who are in need of a lifeline.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
100% of the profit made from sales of the cookbook will go to Community Meal Share. Community Meal Share is a collective that aspires to bridge the gap between the privileged and underprivileged in Sri Lanka.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

And I thank @polboy.ldn from the bottom of my heart for pulling this together. ❤️⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

It’s a story that started with a jar. ​​​​​​​​​
Jars packed full of curries, to be stored and eaten later. 

Krish and Joey then started selling jars of curries in jars at local farmers' markets, as @muvsallday
Inspired my Krish’s mum and her nifty idea using those jars for curry.

I've tried MUVs curries, and I am deeply fond of their aubergine curry and their spinach dhal.  It's like a taste of home.

Steadily, Kirsh and Joey have built a strong, loyal following. 

And now, they have moved to a super cool space, in Tooting.

It's in this space that Krish and Joey will welcome you with open arms to their most wonderful supper clubs. Where you can dine out on a deliciously authentic Sri Lankan cooking menu.

Along with the food is a wonderfully curated wine list. Handpicked wines that support small vineyards like @aslina_wines.

Everything about Krish and Joey is well thought out and well planned.

I'm delighted to support them, and you should too!

And btw this is not a PR post but one of genuine affection because I love Krish & Joey and everything they do!

Please check them out, and support this brilliant new business! ❤️
