General:Coriander is the seed of Coriandrum sativum, a plant in the parsley family. The seed is globular and almost round, brown to yellow red, and 1/5 inch in diameter with alternating straight and wavy ridges....
This turned out very well. Excellent colourful presentation on the plate, clear and fresh taste, one pan dish and solid Asian flavor. Actually I am in Beijing, China at the moment and just made this using ingredients I was able to find very easily simply walking around the block.
