$7.00 $8.49
Buy dried curry leaves online from the people who grow them. Our whole curry leaves (also called karipatta, curry patta or kadi patta) are grown on our family farm in Gujarat, dried, and packed in 30g pouches in Truganina, Melbourne. They're made for tadka: drop a small handful into hot oil or ghee with mustard seeds and the aroma carries through dal, sambar, rasam, lemon rice and curries. Dried leaves are quieter than fresh until they hit the oil, so use about two to three times the amount a recipe gives for fresh. $7 for 30g, posted Australia-wide.

Dried Curry Leaves
$7.00
What it is
Whole dried leaves of the curry tree (Murraya koenigii), the leaf used for tempering across South Indian, Sri Lankan and Gujarati cooking. It isn't curry powder and doesn't taste like it. The leaf has its own warm, citrusy aroma that comes alive in hot fat. Each pouch holds whole leaves, not crushed powder.
How to use
- Heat 1–2 tbsp oil or ghee until a mustard seed sizzles straight away.
- Add mustard or cumin seeds and let them pop.
- Add 8–15 dried curry leaves for a pot of dal for 3–4. They should sizzle and darken within 10–20 seconds.
- Pour the whole tadka over dal, sambar, rasam, vegies or rice. Recipe written for fresh leaves? Use two to three times the volume in dried. Avoid cold oil and long frying, which turns them bitter.
Ingredients
100% dried curry leaves (curry patta / kadi patta / karipatta). Nothing added.

How we make it
We grow and harvest the leaves on our farm in Gujarat, dry them, then pack them in Truganina.
Storage and shelf life
Keep the pouch sealed in a cool, dry, dark cupboard, away from the stove. Dried leaves don't spoil quickly when kept dry, but their aroma fades, so use an opened pouch within 6–12 months for the best flavour. Check the best-before date on the pouch.

Frequently asked questions
How many dried curry leaves equal fresh?
About two to three times the volume. Dried leaves are milder until fried in hot oil.
Are curry leaves the same as curry powder?
No. Curry powder is a spice blend (turmeric, coriander, cumin, chilli) and normally contains no curry leaves.
Are curry patta, kadi patta and karipatta the same?
Yes. They're the same leaf in different Indian languages: kadi patta in Hindi, karipatta and karuveppilai in the South, and karapincha in Sinhala.
Do Woolworths and Coles sell curry leaves?
On 5 Oct 2026, Coles listed a 10g fresh punnet, and Woolworths a 5g fresh punnet and a 5g dried pack. Stock varies. See Where to buy curry leaves in Australia.
How should I store dried curry leaves?
Sealed, in a cool, dark cupboard away from steam. Use within 6–12 months of opening.
