Closely related to thyme, ajowan seeds are often used in lentil dishes and South Asian cooking. Roasting the seeds in ghee or neutral oil brings out their essential flavor. Although ajowan looks like a seed, it is technically a fruit.

Details

Especially popular in southern Indian cooking, ajowan seeds (also known as ajwain) are similar to lovage seeds, and have a flavor reminiscent of thyme. Both ajowan and thyme contain thymol, an essential oil that produces a pleasant aroma and strong flavor. Ajowan seeds are found in Asian cooking, biscuits, savory pastries, and breads.

Pantry stape for me

I first bought ajowan seeds for Indian cooking, but now I use it a lot for Western cooking where thyme would go well, like roast or braised chicken. I recently mentioned this to an Indian friend and she laughed a lot :)
