Why us?
Hey everyone! To be honest, I’m just a broke college student trying to survive in Manhattan without dropping $20 on every meal. I’ve lived the instant ramen life (sometimes for way too long), and I know how tough it can be to eat well on a tight budget. A Bit of Coriander is my way of sharing some actually affordable meals that I've made over the last few years that are easy to make, taste good, and won’t drain your wallet.
Every recipe here comes with real prices, real store locations (yes, even the bodega on 109th), and no BS. If you’re tired of recipe blogs that say “budget-friendly” but still call for saffron, you’re in the right place.
Together lets grub and grub lots!
