About Karapincha
Karapincha, also known as curry leaves, is a staple in South Asian cuisine, particularly Sri Lankan and Indian dishes. These aromatic leaves come from the curry tree (Murraya koenigii) and are celebrated for their distinctive flavor and rich nutritional profile. Packed with essential nutrients like iron, calcium, phosphorus, and vitamins A, B, C, and E, karapincha supports bone health, immunity, and vision. It is high in antioxidants, promoting digestion and potentially helping regulate blood sugar levels. Traditionally, it is used in curries, lentil dishes, and soups, both for its taste and medicinal properties. Karapincha is low in calories and free of unhealthy fats, making it a heart-friendly ingredient. However, benefits are maximized when consumed fresh or lightly cooked, as over-frying can reduce its nutrient content. A go-to herb for wellness and flavor, karapincha is both a culinary and health treasure in many households.
