Ingredients
- 1/2 cup coriander seeds
Instructions
- Heat the pan: Place a pan on medium-high heat and wait until it is hot. You can test the heat by holding your hand a few inches above the pan; you should feel noticeable warmth.
- Roast the coriander seeds: Add the coriander seeds to the hot pan. Continuously sauté and stir the seeds frequently to ensure they roast evenly and do not burn.
- Cool the seeds: Once the seeds become nutty in aroma and slightly darkened, remove them from the pan and transfer to a plate or bowl to cool for a few minutes.
- Grind the seeds: After cooling, grind the roasted seeds to your preferred powder consistency using a spice grinder or mortar and pestle.
- Store the powder: Store the roasted coriander powder in an airtight container placed in a dry, dark place. It will keep its freshness and flavor for up to 3 months or more.
