hi guys, the common bay leaf available is not the indian bayleaf traditionally used in indian cooking. I have just  visited the link chris303 has supplied but this rajah brand is not indian bay leaves i have bought these before and though it says tej patta no where on the packing does it say so. from experience tej patta as it is called are larger often broken leaves with some having round brownish spots on them and about 3 veins running upwards unlike the rajah ones. if bodmass is still needing them i buy here

the rajah mild paste is fab!  http://www.theasiancookshop.co.uk/rajah-curry-paste-mild-285g-302-p.asp
but trial and error is the only way as tastes differ.

i'm with sns on this one, i was at the show also and picked up flyers and it is most definately hudas, i also found it raw and not BIR standard. i guess everyone has there own tastes so no doubt you enjoyed it but general BIR standard it is not!
