Coriander leaves, or dhaniya, are a staple herb in Indian kitchens, used widely for garnishing and flavoring. Its delicate green leaves and aromatic stems add a burst of freshness to curries, dals, chutneys, and salads. Dhaniya is typically chopped and sprinkled over dishes just before serving to enhance taste and appearance. It blends well with green chili, garlic, and lemon in traditional spice mixes. Choose bunches that are fresh, fragrant, and bright green. Easy to use and quick to incorporate into meals, coriander is an essential finishing touch in everyday cooking.
