Dhania or Coriander or Cilantro is an integral part of the Indian cuisine flavoring. It used to be a winter exclusive condiment making its dominant presence in the form of a side to the Indian Flat Breads (Paratha) or as garnish to the Indian Street foods (Chaats) or a dip for Indian fries (Pakoras or Pakodas).
