Fresh Thai Kaffir Lime Leaves (75g)

Fresh Kaffir lime leaves are essential for a lot of Thai/Malaysian/etc cooking and there really is no substitute - dried leaves are terrible and subbing with lime zest/juice just doesn't cut it. I'll put it this way: when I opened the package (which was very thorough - the leaves were in a paper bag, swaddled in bubble wrap inside a cardboard box) I left the leaves on the kitchen counter. About 15 mins later, I walked into the kitchen and was met with a blast of intense lime aroma. I used them in a beef rendang, the best I've ever made.£7 may seem pricey, but you get a really big bag that will cover you for many meals or spice pastes, so I would say they're pretty good value. Lime leaves also freeze well and will hold their flavour for a good few months. Finally, these were delivered a day before expected, so gratitude to the supplier. I'll definitely be buying from them again.

Amazing products,I have frozen it again and still the same incredible fragrance .

I use Mae Ploy Thai or Maesri curry pastes (as most Thai restaurants do) and everyone thinks I'm a genius. But, I'm really not. However, I elevated the delicious authentic taste even more when I started to add 2-3 of these leaves (after frying the paste, protein and veg and with the coconut milk) before I start to simmer. Hard to describe the depth and piquancy that these little bad boys deliver. So good that I've gotten my daughter and a couple of my more adventurous friends into using them.I used to get them on Ocado where I got about a dozen leaves for six quid. Which makes this an amazing bargain, this bag will last months and freezes well.

Fresh and full of flavour and great value for money when you consider that most supermarkets charge £2.00 for 4 leafs 🍃Store amazingly well in the freezer for when you need them.

Bought these for a dinner party and came not fresh as you can see by my picture, plus they are not very fragent either. went to send them back but its costing me £3.45 to do so and the product only cost £5.45 so its not worth the trouble.Avoid or at least get confirmation from the seller that they promise to send fresh before purchasing!

Had to throw about half the leaves away, the bottom half of the bag was brown, smelled unpleasant & had clearly gone off. Shame. Still represents better value than big supermarket dried or fresh leaves though.

Kaffir limes are preferred, but these give any green curry a great scent of what we're after in the UK. Add them whole and pick them out at the end if you need to. Jamie Oliver won't give away this secret :P

Products arrived very fast and still fresh. They are more expensive than from physical store probably because of the delivery cost, that's reasonable.
