Curry leaves is one main ingredient in Indian cooking. If you have fresh curry leaves available to you at any point of time, I would consider you to be lucky. For us, we need to buy and store it whenever it is available at the grocery store for future use. So this is what I do to store it.
- Wash the curry leaves thoroughly with water.
- Pat it dry on a kitchen towel and line them on a plate.
- Spray some cooking oil over them and spread it in a manner that all the leaves get coated with oil. Vegetable oil is preferable.
- Seal them in a ziploc bag and freeze it. Use it whenever required.
- It helps the curry leaves to stay almost fresh for months.
