Coriander Powder Recipe | How to make Coriander powder in home | Dhaniya Powder recipe with step by step pictures and instructions. Coriander powder is one of the most common spice used in Indian cuisine. We use it in variety of curries and gravies along with red chilli powder. We never buy any spice powder in shops and always make them fresh in home. If making small quantity we use the mixer else give it for grinding in Mill.

My mom always use certain spices along with coriander powder to make it more flavorful. This keep well up to 6-9 months when properly stored in air tight container. Monday again and theme for this week in Foodie Monday Bloghop group is #242MasalaDabba suggested by Preethi who blogs at Preethicuisine.

That's an interesting coriander powder masala with added toor dal and pepper. Making spices at home is the best as one can control what goes into it and we tend to roast the ingredients properly.
