oil/fat
Ghee or mustard oil
Ghee / Sarson ka tel
4.5 g1 teaspoon
14 g1 tablespoon
Teaspoon basis; ghee about 0.90 g/ml and mustard oil about 0.91 g/ml.
Instead of Ghee or mustard oil
Mustard oilUse the same weight. Heat it until it just smokes, then cool slightly before cooking to mellow its pungency.
GheeUse the same weight. Milder and richer; you lose mustard oil's sharp, pungent note.
Vegetable oilUse the same weight. Neutral; add a pinch of mustard powder if you want a hint of the original flavour.
