7 Best Substitutes For Coriander

Producer: Priyanka Das Editor: Manuj Yadav

Coriander, also known as cilantro, seeds and leaves are a popular spice across several cuisines.

Coriander has a warm, unique flavour that brings a richness to dishes.

However, coriander can be swapped with a few other spices and herbs. Find out...

Cumin: Like coriander, cumin also has a warm, nutty, and spicy flavour. It can be a worthy substitute.

Garam Masala: The popular Indian spice blend can easily substitute coriander as it is one of the many ingredients of the mix.

Curry Powder: Just like garam masala, most curry powders are a mix of different spices - including coriander.

Caraway: Closest in taste to coriander, using caraway in place of coriander will not drastically change your dish.

Parsley: Belonging to the same family as coriander, parsley brings the same freshness but lacks the citrusy hint.

Basil: A coriander stand-in can be chosen from a wide variety of basil available. Thai basil is a noteworthy alternative.

Herb Mixtures: A blend of fresh herbs like dill, parsley, tarragon and oregano can replace the flavour of coriander well.
