With limited urban spaces, having a green patch that you can call your own might feel like more of a dream than reality. Irrespective of whether you have a green thumb, tap to see some easy-to-maintain plants that will make your cooking  space come to life.

MINT

Fragrant mint shrubs are ideal to place in a space where the sunlight isn’t too harsh and easy to access.

CURRY LEAF

Requiring zero maintenance aside from a little watering, homegrown curry leaves have a flavour that is hard to replicate.

PARSLEY

One of the most ideal herbs to grow indoors, parsley requires a well-lit space to flourish and make your pasta look pretty.

DILL

Repurpose tin containers instead of throwing away, by planting a few sprigs of dill in them to use fresh over salads and stews.

LEMONGRASS

Living in a tropical region like India, the long green stalks of lemongrass will scent your kitchen and elevate your cup of tea.

ROSEMARY

Like most other fresh herbs, having a small pot of planted rosemary is perfect when you need to spruce up a cocktail last minute.

TULSI

Considered to be a holy plant in Indian homes, no kitchen garden feels complete without a pot of holy basil growing alongside your other shrubs.
