Mustard oil

सरसों का तेल

What to know

Traditionally heated until it just smokes before use, which mellows the sharpness.

Measures

  • 1 tbsp ≈ 13.5 g
  • 1 cup ≈ 180 g

Cups here are the Indian 200 ml cup, not the 240 ml US cup — a common reason a recipe does not work. Weigh where you can; the grams are the figure we cook to.
