The reference to coriander and/or cilantro depends in part by which country you are living. I knew the herb as cilantro in the USA but in Australia the herb is referred to as coriander - both the fresh or the dried seeds or ground herb.

Should it not be "chopped fresh cilantro"?

Steve Muni7 years ago

Cilantro is another name for fresh coriander.

indeed. Coriander is the seed, cilantro are the fresh leaves. Not the same.
