Re: Learning to cook, need some translation

coriander is dhaniya
Mint is poodina

and corn starch is nor corn ka ata, it is corn ka starch (i don't know what do you call starch in urdu). Starch and flour are two different things.

Corn starch should be labled "corn starch" since it should come in a packet.

Re: Learning to cook, need some translation

well celery is u can find it in the green leaves dept of veggies..these r long stems and have green leaves...

corn starch is maya...but u can use corn flour in place of corn starch..it doesnt make any difference!

coriander is dhanya

chicken stock is yakhni..u can use the cubes..the ones from KNORR r better than Maggi...

Parsley...looks like dhanya but tastes a lot different than dhanya...their leaves r wide and have cuts in the leaves..

hope this helps!
