Local Coriander in Sarawak

Yong Sui or Coriander(  Coriandrum sativum) is not easy to plant in Sarawak.
It is also known as Chinese parsley . It is known as cilantro in the western world.Image may contain: plant and food

The seeds are very important in Asian curry paste preparation and can be purchased in need little packets or boxes. They are light and very fragrant when dried and pounded.

The leaves are also awesome as garnish especially for Laksa Sarawak. Some gourmets claim that Laksa Sarawak without a sprig of coriander is not the authentic thing. The leaves may not be readily available in the market every day.
No photo description available.
Its leaves are pretty.
