There’s always a difference in coarse and roasted powders in spices.
In making non vegetarian dishes, marinating a meat in coarsely ground powder alters the taste of the dish completely. It’s like using chilly flakes instead of chilly powders.
Marination in coriander
Marinate one kg meat with 1 tsp of turmeric, 2tbsp of coriander powder or coarsely ground seeds , 3tbsp of yoghurt , 1tbsp of ginger garlic paste , lime juice, oil, finely chopped coriander leaves, cardamom 4 pods, cloves 3 , bayleaves 3, two chopped onions. Leave it for overnight marination and pressure cook or slow cook it.
Try the above with coriander powder -coarsely ground seeds and finely ground. It alters the taste completely.
