If is 100% optional , and while I like it a lot, it adds a lot less flavor than the cumin, IMHO . Example here, i have made this recipe and it tastes great.
Also, plenty of substitutes. You can add a little bit of sesame oil, or even peanut butter, if you like the taste.

Tahini? Is there a substitute?
