    Another of my favourites - but I have had to adapt to no curry leaves here in Scotland (though can occasionally find dried version - nowhere nearly as good!). YAM xx

    Thank you.
    Yes, it's really very true that some Indian veggies or spices are difficult to get abroad. For curry leaves substitute you can use dried curry powder, to enhance the taste.
