  • About
This is my favourite herb. Coriander leaves are commonly used as a garnish in many Nonya dishes as Italian parsley is for many Western dishes. Yet, a few find the pungent aroma too rubbery for their liking.
I used to toss tiny coriander seeds on my garden patch and watch the tender leaves grow. Once harvested, coriander leaves wilt very quickly. In Chinese or Nonya cooking, the leaves are used for garnish while the stems are discarded. However, the Thais use the stems and roots for cooking as they believe that these add more flavour.
