Description
Coriander is a herb which is acknowledged as a flavour enhancer along with its nutritional value. It is known by different names as coriander and cilantro, but this certainly holds a distinction. The dried seeds are called coriander while the fresh leaves are called cilantro. Moreover, they provide a tart lemony flavour to the dish, but not only this, it also has a high nutritional value as it is rich in vitamins, minerals, and fibre.
