Karuveppilai Sadam Recipe

Curry Leaves Rice is perfect for lunch or even for lunchbox.I have tasted curry leaves rice once when amma made it for lunch and I instantly loved it….that instant I decided to post it here. Yesterday I bought fresh curry leaves so thought to make curry leaves rice.I adapted the recipe from here, it turned out so flavorful and good.This fits aptly for lunchbox, you can pair it up with some curry / kootu and vadams.

We just had my lunch with karruveppilai sadam,chow chow kootu and vadam, we had a hearty meal.As I loved the rice so much sat down immediately to edit the pictures and post it 🙂

My Notes:

  • You can even make the curry leaves powder in bulk and store.
  • The above measure will be perfect for 1 cup of rice, but if you have extra store in airtight container and use it as sidedish for idli dosa, tastes great.
  • Add gingelly oil to fluff the rice, gives great flavour.
  • Saute curry leaves just till it starts to color change thats enough.Cool down completely then powder it.Once powdered it may look wet after sometime, it will be ok.

      The powder stays good in room temperature for 3-5 days after that I recommend to refrigerate it
