  1. Hi there.
    I have come accross a great coriander recipe (in one of my herb garden
    books) if anyone wants to give it a go.

    Ingredients: 1 medium sized chopped onion, 2 handfulls of chicken
    pieces, chopped bunch of coriander (the more the better), a can of
    coconut milk, salt, pepper.

    Stir fry all of the ingredients, onion first. When chicken cooked, use
    with pasta or rice. It is delicious.
    Have made it a few times now. Was just wondering if anyone else has
    some coriander recipes besides salsa, as I have loads of corriander in
    the garden.
    TIA
    Niki

    Creamy Garlic Prawns

    This recipe is "to die for". Prawns sautéed in fresh garlic and
    coriander cream sauce. Simple to make. Remember to use lite cream and
    only half the salt content for a healthier alternative.
    by magic_elle

    500 g green prawns
    1 tablespoon butter
    1 tablespoon lemon juice
    1/2 cup cream
    4 garlic cloves
    1 tablespoon fresh coriander
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1 teaspoon black pepper
    2 teaspoons olive oil

    1. Peel and devein prawns leaving tails on.
    2. In a small bowl combine lemon juice, crushed garlic, salt and
    pepper.
    3. In a heavy based skillet, melt butter and olive oil on a medium
    heat.
    4. Once butter has melted add prawns and garlic mixture and increase
    heat to ensure prawns are cooked quickly.
    5. Toss prawns and mixture for 1-2 minutes or until prawns turn pink.
    6. Add coriander and toss for a further 30 seconds.
    7. Reduce heat. Add cream and stir through.

    Instead of having with rice, I tossed through some fettucine.
    *Bewdiful*!!!

    Christine. I like you, I really do. But .... eeeyyyuuu.

    Just try it sometime. It is really, really good. And like Greg
    said..a classic combo in Southeast Asia cuisines. And they have some
    fine food. 😉

    Quite so. If you take 10 seconds to Google for recipes with that
    combination, you get over 350 000 hits... I am sure even Rachel Ray
    knows it too <veg>

    It is a popular combination in Thai and Vietnamese recipes. The recipe
    may call it Cilantro instead of Coriander.

    I have a recipe similar to that and it is terrific, except that mine calls
    for curry paste. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Heat a bit of oil in
    a pan and add some curry paste, stir it around then add chopped onion and
    cook until they start to soften. Add the chicken (strips) and when they are
    almost done add some sliced red peppers. Add coconut milk, lemon juice and
    fish sauce cook and stir until the sauce thickens a bit. Just before
    serving add chopped cilantro.

    BTW.... since it says a chopped bunch it would likely be cilantro the herb
    rather than coriander the spice.

    Thank you, Becca. There lies the problem--I am one of those people
    to whom Cilantro/Coriander tastes terrible. So I guess it is not the
    combination--the thought of that spice alone is repulsive to me.

    Some of my friends think cilantro tastes like soap, so they never eat it.

    There are definitely differences in the way taste buds work. That, and I
    think
    my associating cilantro with mexican flavors is what grossed me out thinking
    about it mixed with coconut milk.

    Cilantro is also a major ingredient in many middle eastern cuisines,
    as well as southeast Asian ones.

    In some countries we call the herb "coriander" and the spice "coriander

    But to each her own. I would not make it but I would certainly taste it.

    Possibly because you are also averse to the taste of semen...

    Stick with me, kid, and in NO time you'll go from delicately nibbling
    cilantro to GOBBLING it up in copious quantities...

    Are you "game", cyberWAD...???
