Indian bay leaves belong to a tree closely related to cinnamon whose leaves form a good substitute. Bay leaves are tough three- veined leaves that are very popular in northern india, but are little known in other parts of the country. The reason for so much use of bay leaves in northern india is the influence of the mughal reign during which north indian cuisine adopted this flavor. In the imperial northern indian (mughal) cuisine, bay leaves appeared frequently in biryanis (rice dishes) or kormas and hence soon formed an essential part of the mostly used blend of spices (garam masala).
