This was on Tenina's blog some time back.. My noted copy was from beginning of January 2011.. This is the recipe I was talking about on the other topic.. I imagine there is no problem posting it here Tenina as it was available for everyone via your blog.. Let me know if its still there and a link so i can link it to your blog ) or if you have a problem with this ..

Thank you Frozzie.

Have you tried it with kaffir lime leaves?

H

[Frozzie]

No as couldnt get kaffir or curry leaves.. .. Can now though.. 

[Frozzie]

I imagine though it wouldnt work as the curry leaves must give the distinct flavour with other spices??? Kaffir being lime but maybe you could create a tasty new spice.. They would have to be dried though..

[Halex]

I will give it a go. I love kaffir lime

[Frozzie]

Me too..

Kim, are the coriander, cumin and fennel seeds ground or whole?

[Frozzie]

Whole.. When ot says seeds they are whole if not it states ground 😊

So do you think this curry powder is far better than any other curry powder recipe we have?  Might be nice for our hampers.

[Frozzie]

I made it without the curry leaves was quite nice but never with as couldnt get them but carines recipe has no curry leaves.. Just as hally asked what recipe it was i posted and yes think it will be lovely for hampers 😊

[Frozzie]

Hi Kim, if you had come down at the weekend I could have loaded you up with curry leaves from my tree.  Ha! Ha!

[Frozzie]

Oh bum.. Now I know you have a tree though lol!!!

[trudy]

Kim, want me to post some to you?  You should be also be able to get a plant up there as they love the heat and especially humidity.  I have mine in a very large pot as once they are planted they like to send up suckers.  So if you do get one and put it in a pot make sure you put something underneath it ie a brick or you might find the roots go down and you have them springing up everywhere.

It sounds like the curry version of mint.
