  3. Meanwhile, heat oil in a pan on medium heat. Spread oil to evenly coat pan.
  4. Add the mustard seeds when the oil is hot. As soon as they start to sputter, add a few curry leaves and give it mix. Add 3-4 Tablespoons diced onion and chopped green chilies or chili flakes to taste. Cook until onions are translucent.
