Now, you may try sesame oil for a slight difference in flavor...
May be some Panch Puran would pep up the fragrance...

Can you have a separate section in your blog for general comments on your blog. I have chosen a recipe randomly to add my comments about your site. I am a big fan of your site. I love the way you present each recipe, the font style, the vertical way of presentation, the photos of each post, the friendly language. Your blog is so simple, attractive and to the point. The variety of recipes is just so different. The photos are that which makes me want to try out your recipes. To my every comments, you have responded. I always look forward to your new posts. So far I have tried the paal payasam, egg vindaaloo, fish fry, chicken curry, beef pickle and tea cake in the same way you have mentioned and they all were just brilliant. I usually like to watch cooking videos as they inspire me to cook. But I am just as amazed as I wonder how much I like this site . You are the best!! and a malayalee too.. :))
I can just go on and on because I love all the recipes here, yes.. all of them. Thanks!
