The leaves of the curry leaf tree (Murraya koenigii) are frequently used in Indian and Thai cooking. They are stewed, roasted, and used in soups and sauces. The plant's genus name was given in honor of Johann Andreas Murray, a Swedish physician who published an influential work on the properties of plants.
