Greetings from sunny South Africa.  Thanks for interesting salad.  As, we call some things by different names, could you give another name or alternative for cilantro leaves.  I must confess I don't qualify as a cook at all, and am delighted to have found Veggies Unite!  for assistance.  I enjoy herbs and have some in my garden, so if you can suggest something for a similar / compatible taste I would appreciate it.

Cilantro is actually corriander leaves rather than the seed. A substitute may be a strong Italian leaf parsley, but cilantro is special!

Coriander(leaves)/cilantro is also known as danya/dhania - not sure of the spelling, but that's the Indian name for it.
