Curry leaves have a "mild, aromatic, slightly bitter" flavor.
The fresh leaves are an indispensable part of Indian cuisine and Indian traditional medicines. They are most widely used in southern and west coast [[Indian cuisine|Indian cooking]], usually fried along with vegetable oil, mustard seeds and chopped onions in the first stage of the preparation. They are also used to make [[thoran]], [[vada (food)|vada]], [[Rasam (dish)|rasam]], and [[kadhi]]; additionally, they are often [[Dry roasting|dry-roasted]] (and then ground) in the preparation of various powdered spice blends ([[Masala (spice)|masala]]s), such as South Indian sambar masala, the main seasoning in the ubiquitous vegetable stew [[Sambar (dish)|sambar]]. The curry leaves are also added as flavoring to [[masala dosa]], the South Indian potato-filled [[Dosa (food)|dosas]], made with a mildly probiotic, fermented lentil and rice batter. The fresh leaves are valued as seasoning in the cuisines of South and Southeast Asia. In [[Cambodia]], curry leaves ({{langx|km|ស្លឹកកន្ទ្រោប}}, {{lang|km-Latn|slœ̆k kontroap}}) are roasted and used as an ingredient for ''[[samlor machu kroeung]]''. In [[Java]], the leaves are often stewed to flavor ''[[gulai]]''. Though available dried, the aroma and flavor are greatly inferior. In almost all cases, the leaves will be freshly plucked from a garden only a few hours or even minutes before they are used. The oil can be extracted and used to make scented soaps.
