In India we use the leaves directly in vegetables or any other dish directly as individual leaves or into a paste.Also made into powder with cumin seeds ,salt and dried chillies and eat it with steaming hot rice and ghee.Curry leaves are good for digestion and has anti cancer properties.
GA gardener thank you for that great information! Appreciated greatly
They sure are good, remember, as you heat the leaf, your losing protein, and soon as it hits 170 degrees F The anti-cancer properties are destroyed - Stay useful - remember, Alkaloids, and micro nutrients DIE at 170 degrees - Eat the leaves fresh, make your tea at 165 degrees - We need to get past tradition in light of new information that can REALLY heal your body
@@jasonjanes3256 we temper them with mild heat. That also have a different kind of benefit.
These Indian cuisine are very ancient coming down to us from generations. We can't simply change. It is rooted in us for many many many generations.
South India, mostly. In both West Bengal and North India we don't use curry leaves very often, although I personally enjoy them in my sabjis and daals every once in a while.
it also cured my monkeys aids
Luke, you have my heart. I totally agree with what you said. I’m Indian and make curries everyday, twice a day mostly. I can’t do without these curry leaves in my curries. Also you can add curry leaves while making homemade ghee. Smells divine and tastes delicious. Promotes hair growth too along with so many additional benefits. Back home we have tons of plants growing in our backyard, tender and fresh. Gosh I miss it.
I buy a pack of leaves for $0.99 at my local Indian grocers every week. I’m going to try to grow them from seeds I have bought from India recently. Fingers crossed.
Ghee is a product of animal enslavement and exploitation. It's more ethical to use oil for chhawk than to use ghee.
Hey, Luke... thanks for taking the time to make this video for us. Crowing curry was never on my radar; so I appreciate you bringing this up for consideration.
Ah! My favorite....love this plant...it tends to grow very little in colder temps but loves heat n sun n humidity! I use it in tempering dal or stir frying veges. And to prune it...if it is big enough and you want it to be bushier, prune the top and you'll get a new branch from the next node.
Thanks for doing this, Luke...I live in India and I am repotting four curry leaf plants today into one huge container...really have learned a lot from your videos...😊
Luke, awesome video. Trifecta is what i have been fertilizing my curry leaf tree(plant ) i have been using for 3 years now. It has helped my plant have lush growth.
You saved my 4th attempt at growing coffee plant so when my curry started waking up this spring, I knew to keep it looking it's best I would need to look for your advice on caring for it.
I really appreciate you doing this series for plants lesser known in the US. Curry leaves are a must in my household and I have an potted plant just like yours. However mine hasn't grown any side shoots, it it growing upwards on a single stem. I'm going to try pruning the top during the growing season.
I was waiting for this video from u I’m a Sri Lankan lives in Melbourne hence I do have a plant at my home same size as yours but was worrying how should I take care of the plant
Thank you so much
Super excited for this video. Everyone says this tree is easy to grow, but not from seed! I just grew new trees from seeds. Took some experimenting to get them started, but even the first stem and tiny leaves have the wonderful aroma!!
I wish you would have said that there is a difference between the curry leaf, and curry powder found in markets. The powder is a mix of spices like masala, ginger, tumeric, pepper, etc.. You did say green curry, but most people will only hear curry. Always enjoy your videos!
Thank you
Thanks for the information... I love curry leaves... I add them in every recipe ...
Curry leaves 🍃 are mostly used for tempering . It adds great aroma and flavor to the dishes. It’s native to sub content.
I’m so happy to find your channel, I just started to transform my rooftop terrace area into an edible garden! Curry tree would be my first one to start …. Yeah!!!
My friend used to have these plants in her home, it smells amazing :-)
In most recipes the leaves are "tempered" with the rest of the spices in the pan. The aroma and flavor is beyond beautiful.
New leaves will have more flavor, not the old leaves.
@@moparthia q
beyond beautiful is exactly right.
Great video Luke! Thanks so much for sharing! This is one I've haven't tried before!
I had to plant this for my summer project , thank you it helped
I love curry, the smell and taste it’s amazing 😋 I have 2 small tree after my dog destroyed the big tree 😩so trying to see how I can take care of those tree to grow fast and healthy.
I have two of these I bought 3 months ago and have just sat on my windowsill in the kitchen which is not a sun facing window, they are only just starting to get new leaf growth, I think I will move these over to the other side of my house 😊
Thanks for the information. Our tree grows in the ground well in San Diego, CA.
Thank you for doing this video... love all your videos but putting a comment first time... very excited seeing curry plant in your garden
Thanks for covering the water, soul, fertilizers, sunlights, temperature, harvesting, etc of everything.
last year i bought a curry leaves packet from the indian store, and just stuck one of the twigs in a pot. the thing actually grew and we are able to harvest leaves every now and then for curries. its about a foot and a half tall now (compared to about 3 inches when i first planted it). now i'm here to figure out how to make it branch out a little. i know nothing about growing plants. and i can't believe that little thing went from a patel brothers fridge to actually getting new life.
That's the actual answer I was looking was, thanks so much for telling that curry plant can grow from planting a leaf into the soil😊😊
I love curry. Love your videos as they are so educational and helpful.
Your title said " how to grow curry plant " - unfortunately I didnt see that. I was expecting some tips on how to grow it from its stems, or its seeds, etc.
Me too! I wanted to see how long it takes the seeds to germinate but got no information.
Me too. totally misleading video
@@inamakah you just saved me 8 minutes
Love when an edible is also an ornamental 😋
very pretty tree I can see how fun It would be to grow
2:45 you're welcome
If you look at its benefits,even if you do not like it,you would want to use. It has everything that keeps you young, hair, skin,eye sight and everything that comes with it. Who does not want to be healthy and young?
That is how I started using in my dishes. My mom always used it and I would make a face to eat it but now I use it in almost every dish. Very informative video.
Luke, great episode. Not a lot of how to grow curry information out there. 😎😎😎
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great video tutorial.
Howdy Luke, I liked how you gave us important information about the curry plant. This plant is a gift of Nature to the mankind. Your enthusiasm about sharing your knowledge and love for this plant gives me an inkling you were born in India in your past life.
I enjoyed your informative video. Thank you for sharing.
I looked all over for a Curry Leaf Plant a few years ago and could not find it. So I went to the grocery store and found a few packs of curry leaves that had some 6+ inch stems on the leaves. I took them home and rooted them. Three years later, I have a 2 1/2 or 3 foot tall bush. Proud of that little bush, but can't help to think that it should be bigger with more stems growing out of the soil.
Love your videos, first off if you ever come to Denver a collaboration would be great as I’m now obsessed with growing. Secondly, where do you find a grafted papaya tree such as yours?
Ps. Thought I was commenting on the papaya video lol
If we ever come to Denver I will let you know. But likewise if you are ever in Michigan let me know. Would love to have you on the show making a 3 course meal from the garden. We got our grafted papaya from a site called fast growing trees. A bit pricy, but they are super quality.
I have been struggling to find a tree /seed for this for a month !!! Then it clicked we live in Florida n someone might be growing it.. so asked in an Indian group n we got a sapling today... m so excited coz we use it on daily basis n Indian store is too far away to go every time. I hope I don’t kill it... I hope it grows n stays for long.
Very well explained, thanks for sharing ☘️
I have a curry leave plant (not quite a tree yet) and I use the leaves and boil in coconut oil, then sift the oil for a hair treatment - great results.
Great vid and a plant that is a lot more doable for most as a container tree :)
Thank you for sharing this useful information...
Cool, thanks Luke!
I'm not Indian, but I'm pretty sure curry means a "blend", which was made into a thing when British soldiers asked street vendors to whip something up. While curry leaves are undoubtedly widely used in South Indian cuisine, it is not what we know of as the curry flavor. That is cardamom, coriander, cloves, turmeric, and in Asian cuisine, coconut milk and bay leaves. You could walk down the spice aisle of an Indian market and smell each of these and easily see where they play the part. Curry leaves, despite the name, are not the main ingredient of curries. They do not smash curry leaves into a powder to make curry. They do grind cloves into a powder with a pestle, however.
I absolutely love cooking with curry leaves. They make the Indian dishes more fragrant & flavourful😊
This is mostly used in Southern India only. Northern Indian curries don't usually have this... we use significantly different spices. In my northern state we call this "sweet neem" and we call 'bay leafs' as "curry leafs" :D
Exotic plant 🤩... It is commonly grown in streets, parks, homes and the wild areas here in India. Yeah but it adds exotic flour to the food..
Wow, interesting to see this! Curry leaves just common here Malaysia, love its fragrance :-)
Thank you that’s just the info I needed. I just received curry tree seeds and wonder if I should soak them a day or so?
That would be so awesome 👏 to grow a curry tree !!!
Yes!!! Would love to see a tropical country plant series. Suggestions on where to buy. Fellow Michigander here 🙋🏻♀️
Here is where I got mine. They grow very fast. amzn.to/2T4qu3X
Great of you to talk about a plant from India! Can you talk about growing ridge, snake gord, and turmeric too? I’m not from India, but my husband is, so would appreciate having your input here in Texas?
One more tip for you is rice washed water use this water for this curry leaves plant they love like anything else.... grows more and better leaves...
Thank you so much! I have been looking to grow these for years! I know they use these in everything in Sri Lanka and are difficult to find in the US. The taste is so distinct and I love using to flavor fried potatoes. Judt add to the oil and saute before you toss in potatoes. You can also add onions, mustard seeds and cayenne. P.S. you can freeze the leaves!
Like and support from London! 😉
Great subject. I didn't know it could be so doable.
Can you do a post about growing ginger? turmeric?
I can certainly try!
24601
Please do a video on growing ginger!!!
Ginger and turmeric are really easy - I know cuz I'm a lazy gardener.
Just take an organic ginger root with eyes and cover with earth - water it !
It grows beautifully same with tumeric !
Luke, thanks for this video. I have a curry leaf plant in a south facing window inside because it’s too windy outside where I live and it lost all its leaves when I had it out there. It seems much happier inside and flowers and makes seeds every year, but doesn’t produce a lot of branches to harvest leaves from. I’ve started to think that I should maybe top the flowers to prevent it from flowering so I get more leaf growth. Do you have any advice on pruning for more leaf growth and what to do when it goes to seed?
Oooh I want to grow a chocolate tree?!!
Great episode, Luke! Really good information. 🙏
Green curry is from Thailand and uses Kaffir Lime leaf. Similar but not same
I wouldn’t even say similar. They have completely different flavors. Kaffir lime is of course more citrusy but I really don’t know how to describe curry leaf.
Awesomeness
great content. thanks
Great video
I like all your videos and started my small vegetable garden last year, watching your videos. I am living in Canada and can't find curry seeds anywhere. Can I grow curry plant from store bought curry leaves?
Hey! I fitst saw some of your other videos yesterday, and noticed there was a kari-patta looking plant off to the side. Funny that you made a vid about it today! :D
Great video is there other variety, the one I try had silver like leaf was that a curry tree? Do you sell it?
Before this, i dont like the curry smell..but, after eat chicken fried that've been put some curry leaves, i've fell in love with this plant...
I think u all should try fry the chicken n put some curry leaves into the oil..
That sounds yummy!
So true
@@pradipa1985 😍😍
You should fry the curry leaf first in the oil going to fry anything.then feel the difference
I am sure it was called chicken 65
Luke, could you do a video on camellia sinensis? Green tea, black tea, oolong tea, white tea, pu erh tea source? Love the vids! Keep em coming!!
Yes, that would be great!
Thatd be great on Teas!!
Many Indian "curries" do not contain any curry leaf. The most common curry spices are chili, cumin, coriander, and turmeric, but of course there are many others. Don't get me wrong, curry leaf is great in Indian food which is why I'm growing it and why I'm here.
Still Growing this plant ?
I would love a follow up on some of these indoor plants
Awesome !
MIgardener, where did you get your curry plant. I am in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada and I would like to get a curry train as well. thanks
Nice to see your video on curry leaves, Karivey paku. More videos on indian veggies.
If I may ask, what lights are you using to grow them ? Unfortunately I cannot give much sunlight from where I grow them. I need to get lights.
Can I please ask the best grow lights for indoor plants and your gardening zone so I can follow your tips what to grow when to grow
Authentic south Indian curry leaves gravy.. I tried like this following this video which was so yummy.. How to make Milagu Kuzhambu/Curry Leaves Kuzhambu in Tamil with English subtitles/மிளகு குழம்பு .. stored it for 1 week it still taste good
Great tips! What is the tune when the video starts playing?
Just an FYI these are used more in Sri Lankan cooking and grows like crazy in Sri Lanka! Especially since Sri Lankan’s use whole spices and leaves and use it in our tempering process for a lot of curries!
One of the forgiving trees here in India. You could make chutney (loads of TH-cam videos from experts chefs on how to make it) and spread it on bread if you want a dash of Indian on your sandwich ;)
I have killed many a curry leaf plants. Any suggestions on growing then in NZ (occasion frosts). Live in a valley. Also pruning in winter?
Hey Luke, fellow Michigander here. Do you have curry plant seeds? I use them everyday for cooking but not finding the seeds here. Thank you for all the info
nice video! where'd you get the seeds though? ".99 heirloom & organic vegetable seeds: @t" does not seems to work (in your description)
I have planted a small curry plant in miracle grow potting mix, recently it stopped growing and some it’s leaves are having brown spots. The soil seems to be quite soggy even if I water it weekly. Please let me know what kind of soil would be best for it.
Curry leaves are just not used as herb in food but it is good source for healthy hair, weight loss too!
How does curry leaf plant branch out? As you mentioned, it's better to pluck the lower leaves and keep the top part untouched. Does it branch on its own?
Can you do an update on curry plant? Thanks
My mom brought a curry tree from africa about ten yeary ago and we still hav it here in canada
It’s doing all well??
@@HinaShazli we have it inside most of the year
Never been lucky with growing the curry plant :( Recently my friend gave a big plant which did well thru the winter and kinda died after...still hoping it will come back to life. Can you give a source where i can buy this plant and try again my luck please ?
The soil in your pot looks sandy. Do you mix sand into your pot of soil?
My mom used to live in Zambia and she brought one back
I’m very excited I just got one. Thanks. Full sun in Texas?
How did your curry tree hold up this far? Where can I get curry tree seeds or plant for my house?
Which grow light I can use for indoor curry leaves
I used a stem to plant this..the stem is kinda getting a mold (a white fur like thing) on the 15th day from what it looks like. Any tips on that?
Context: Growing it indoors in Canada, pot is next to a window where there's plenty of sun, the stem cutting is covered under an inverted plastic bottle.
My mom uses it fresh leaves fried for the food
How do we care this plant during extreme winter.
Hey, did you start with the seeds or did you propagate using an existing plant?
Hey Luke, do you have any suggestion on getting the right seeds for this plant or a good established plant. I have been trying to get something in Michigan but hard luck unable to find anything. I would love to grow them tend them indoor under my grow light but for that I somehow need it to start with :) Appreciate your help
Etsy has them
Hi
Thanks for all tips. I was wondering where did you get the starter plant or the seeds from? Please share the link. Thanks again
I will get saplings in 10 days. I am planning to sell them. Where do you located?

You have a bit of mis-information here. The yellow color people associate with curries (and curry powder) comes from the liberal use of Turmeric. These curry leaves would not impart any color unless you used waaay too many, and blended them to a paste first (which I cannot imagine doing). The leaves are usually added to hot oil or ghee along with spices as part of a final tempering step.
Thank you Luke. I love curry leaves. Could you make a video on how to germinate a curry leaf and are there different varieties of curry plant. I notice my curry leaf is very pale green but the ones in the store are dark green. Perhaps, I'm doing something wrong. In California north, could I plant my curry leaf outside? And how do I winterize the C.plant.
Hi I like your curry plants video
How do you get this plants?
Bcoz I love plants and curry leaves plants is my favourite plant
Do you sell the seeds? Or where can I get the seeds?
Thank you
I have a small plant that was gifted to us and it's not growing. I just repotted the plant and put it in full sunlight area outside (Oklahoma City are). It does not appear to have any disease or bugs. Any recommendations on how I an stimulate growth?
Thanks for the video. Do you sell plant or seeds?
We use Curry leaves in almost all Sri Lankan dishes. Trying to find a curry plant to grow in Canada (6a)..dang so expensive!
