Curry Leaves in English, Karuveppilai in Tamil, Karibevu in Kannada, Kadi patta in Hindi, is widely used for seasoning in Indian Cuisine which lends an extraordinary aroma to the dish. Though it has innumerable health benefits, we usually throw away the curry leaves. To make use of the benefits to the fullest, I usually make this Karuveppilai Sadam Recipe. You can even prepare this spice powder in bulk, it stays good for 45 days and use it whenever needed.

Notes

Tips for Making Karuveppilai Sadam Recipe

1. Use fresh curry leaves only for vibrant colour and aroma.
2. I cooked the rice in the water ratio of 1 into 1:5. Ensure the rice grains are separate and completely cooled, so it does not turn mushy while mixing.
3. I used basmati rice, you can use leftover rice too for preparing this curry leaves rice recipe.
4. Adjust red chilli and peppercorns as per spiciness required.
5. After rinsing, dry the curry leaves well in a kitchen towel or you can even sun dry it for an hour. Ensure there is no moisture content, else it becomes a paste while grinding.
6. This curry leaves powder stays good for 45 days if stored in a dry and airtight container. You can even make it bulk and use it whenever needed. 
7. For a little tangy taste, peanut-sized tamarind can be roasted and grounded along with the other ingredients.
8. I suggest using sesame oil or ghee for tempering which lends more taste to the rice.
9. Cashews can be replaced with peanuts too which gives a different nutty flavour to the rice.
