Nope. Curry plant smells great, but it isn't edible.
I probably should have backed up my choice of Murraya. I thought that was
it, but I checked it in The RHS Encyclopedia of House Plants, where it was
listed as native to India and Sri Lanka. But it didn't say anything about
eating it. So I checked Sutrtevant's Edible Plants of the World, where it
is listed as a common flavoring in Indian food.
