What it is

Whole coriander seed, malli in Tamil and dhania in Hindi, is the backbone of South Indian spice powders: more of it goes into sambar podi than any other spice.

Raw it smells faintly of orange peel; roasted, it turns warm and nutty, and that roast is what separates a good podi from a flat one. Whole seeds also go straight into pickle brine and some tempering. Choosing between coriander? This 100g bag for small batches; Natures Coriander Seeds 300g for a month of podi; Heera Coriander (Dhaniya) Powder when you want it ready-ground.

Tip: Roast on low until the seeds darken a shade and smell warm. Take them off before they smoke, and cool fully before grinding.

Goes well with: Heera Chilli Whole Long, Udhaiyam Toor Dal, Heera Tamarind
