Curry plant. So often you hear it mentioned as part of a herb garden on different gardening programmes and articles, but nearly always with the tag line "..although not used in curries...."
So what IS it used for, apart from entertaining your friends when they visit the plot (guess what that is)? I did grow some a couple of years ago, and to be honest, couldn't stick it. I wanted to use it, not just be engulfed by the smell every time I walked past it!
In the end I "set it free" (planted it in the field out the back) but I think the frost or the sheep "did for it".
Has anyone got a use for it (preferably in a curry!)?
