Thanks for the kind words @carolynstahl. A few years ago when I was back in the USA, I visited a Chinese supermarket in the largest metro area near my farmtown where I discovered the owner had begun selling jackfruit from Mexico at a pretty decent price. You could probably get your hands on one with some intense searching. Curry leaves are usually available at any Southeast or South Asian market, and I would imagine some intense searching might find you some curry leaves.
Keep up the awesome Veganuary chefery!!
