Clausena Indica

What Is Clausena Indica?

Clausena indica is a small shrub belonging to the Rutaceae family, known for its rich aromatic leaves and medicinal properties. Often referred to as wild curry leaf or Indian Clausena, this plant is native to tropical and subtropical regions of Asia. While it resembles the common curry leaf plant in appearance, it has a more intense, peppery aroma and deeper therapeutic value.

Its leaves, bark, and roots are used traditionally in herbal remedies, while its fresh or dried leaves serve as flavor enhancers in cooking.

Origin and Cultivation

This hardy shrub grows naturally in hilly and forested regions of Vietnam, India, Thailand, and southern China. It prefers humid environments with well-drained soil and partial sunlight. In Vietnam, it thrives in mountainous areas where indigenous communities have harvested it for generations.

Our product is sustainably collected and dried using low-temperature methods to preserve its aroma and beneficial compounds. Quality control is applied throughout the process—from harvesting to final packaging.

Culinary Use

Although less known globally, Clausena indica is a prized ingredient in local dishes across Southeast Asia. The leaves can be used fresh or dried, offering a spicy, earthy flavor to soups, stews, and grilled meats. They are also used in curries, broths, and pickles.

In some regions, the leaves are pounded and used as a spice rub or added to herbal tea blends for an invigorating taste.
