Recipes with Coriander seed
7 recipes
There are 7 recipes here that use Coriander seed, and every one of them is scored against what is actually in your fridge before it is shown. The quickest is Half-Fried Battered Tempeh at 20 minutes; the longest, Sweet Braised Tofu and Tempeh, takes 60. 1 of them finish in twenty minutes or less, which is usually what matters on a weeknight.
None of these need an oven, an air fryer, or a microwave — a stove and a pan is enough. 2 are vegetarian. 3 have no chili at all, so they work for children.
Coriander seed turns up most often alongside Turmeric, Indonesian bay leaf, Whole chicken and Ginger — if you have one or two of those as well, more of this list becomes cookable tonight rather than after a shopping trip. Add what you have to your fridge and the recipes reorder themselves around it, with anything missing collected into a shopping list.

Grilled Mackerel in Sweet Soy

Half-Fried Battered Tempeh
