Instead of Mustard or vegetable oil
Groundnut oilUse the same weight; neutral, so the dish will lack mustard heat unless you add mustard seeds.
Sunflower oilUse the same weight; neutral and light, but no pungency.
Vegetable or corn oilUse the same weight; plain and neutral, best when mustard oil is omitted for a milder dish.
