Cassia Leaves - Tej Pata

Cassia Leaves (Tej Pata)

Vegetarian

(also known as tej pata or Indian bay leaf)

Cassia leaves are similar in appearance to bay leaves but are usually much bigger and have 3 veins running the length of the leaf rather than the 1 on bay leaves. They also taste completely different to bay leaves with a cinnamon and clove flavour. Cassia leaves are used to infuse and flavour rice, curries and also sweet dishes. Don’t substitute cassia leaves with bay leaves, instead use a small amount of cinnamon or cassia bark.

Remove the cassia leaves before serving.
