Ingredients
1large turmeric leaf
4kaffir lime leaves can be used as an alternative they're not substitutes
Instructions
To use in curries, stews, rice and salads
Rinse and dry the leaf.
1 large turmeric leaf
Roll the leaf lengthwise and with a pair of scissors, or a knife and chopping board, cut the turmeric leaf roll thinly. Add to your recipe at the start of cooking or toss in, for salads.You'll see this in the video below.
To use whole
Rinse and dry the turmeric leaf.
1 large turmeric leaf
Snip off the long-ish stalk (petiole) at the bottom of the leaf.
Lightly grease the leaf and fill as the recipe calls for. Then secure with a cocktail stick or lie your parcel with the seam side down if steaming. If frying or grilling, it's best to secure it with a stick.Don't forget to soak your cocktail sticks in water if grilling (barbecuing).Look out for a fish wrap recipe in a month, as soon as my leaves are large enough!
