南インド料理に欠かせないカレーリーフ。スパイスと呼べば良いのか、はたまたハーブなのか…殆どの料理に入っていると言っても過言ではありません。
Curry leaves is a must when preparing south indian food. I'm not sure if it's a kind of herb or a spice, but what I can say is that you can see it in most of the dishes.
まだまだ葉は小さいけど、先日何枚か料理に使ってみたら見事なかぐわしいカレーリーフの香りが漂ってきました。

温暖な場所でしか育たないため、日本ではうまく大きくなりませんでした。なので、インドに来たらカレーリーフを育てよう！というのが一つの目標でした。
I had an attempt to have a plant in Japan, bus since the climate is not warm always, it somehow did not grow as I expected. So my aim here in India was to have a nice little curry leaf pot of myself, and now it became true.

念願叶ってやってきた可愛いカレーリーフちゃん。水しか与えてないのにすくすくと育っています。
鉢もインドっぽくてお気に入りです。
Even only with water...it's growing every day.

何て贅沢なんでしょう…最高です。
The leaves are still small but you already can use it for making curries. So precious.
