Indian Borage, Mexican Mint or Oregano - This Indian Borage is sometimes called Oregano but it is not the same as Oregano herb that normally use in Italian Cuisine especially pizza. But this Indian Borage can substitute the oregano herb as it brings you the same smell of oregano herb by sun dried the leaves then it is ready to go as a herb. I planted this Indian Borage in a corner of garden nearby my living area as the smell is not friendly to snake. In my tradition cooking, we eat its fresh leaves as a veggie with chili dip or use it in meat stir fried menu to reduce the stinky smell of meat. I understand that Indian Borage is being used for medicines in India for relieving fever, respiratory infection, curing infections and allergies. #MyGarden

Now know that it's different from that Italuan oregano. Thanks for that clarification. We also have here that Indian Borage. We usually make some tea out of its fresh leaves
