Patta Ajwain

Patta Ajwain (Coleus amboinicus) is also known as Parniyavani, Mexican mint, and country borage amongst other things. Its aroma is a combination of oregano, thyme and turpentine. Thus people from Gujarat and Karnataka use it to make Pakoras savoury. It is also used to mask strong odours and flavours of fish and mutton. Its ground dried leaves are used as a herb in soup and stew.

The fresh leaves are used as a laundry scent booster. Besides, it is also an ornamental plant.
