Daun Kunyit or Turmeric Leaves


Beautiful turmeric leaves in my backyard. I planted some turmeric roots about a year ago and now the turmeric leaves are finally coming out. .

Turmeric leaves or daun kunyit is a quintessential ingredient in Chicken Rendang, a Malaysian dish. Since moving here I have not made chicken rendang since I could not find the turmeric leaves at my local Asian stores. So I decided to planted the turmeric roots to get the leaves. I guess it's time to make Nasi Lemak with Rendang Tok. I just have to wait for a few more days for the leaves to mature a little so that the aroma of the turmeric leaves will be stronger.
