Coriander seeds are an important spice in South Asian cuisine, especially Indian food. They are the dried fruit of the coriander plant. They may be used whole, or maybe crushed into a powder form before use.
Coriander powder is an important part of “garam masala” used to make Indian curries, especially Rasam and Sambhar. The seeds can be roasted and eaten raw, known as dhana dal. They are a source of dietary fibre, iron, magnesium, calcium, and other minerals.
