Bay leaf

spice

Bay leaf

Tej Patta

0.5 g1 leaf

USDA FoodData Central (FDC ID 170917): 1 leaf (tejpatta / laurel) = 0.50 g

Instead of Bay leaf

Cinnamon stick
Use a 2 cm piece (about 1 g) for every 1 to 2 bay leaves. Fry in whole-spice temperings; provides the cassia-like warmth typical of Indian tejpatta.
Ground cinnamon (cassia)
Use 0.5 g per leaf. Stir into the sauce during simmering; gives the same warm woodiness but darkens the colour slightly.
