Expert Tips for the Best Radish Sabzi
- For a spicier dish, add more green chilies or a pinch of red chili flakes.
- If you don't have mustard oil, you can substitute with vegetable oil or canola oil, but the flavor will be slightly different.
- Don't overcook the radish; it should be tender-crisp, not mushy.
- Garnish with a squeeze of lemon juice for extra brightness before serving.
