- Instead of black pepper, you can add red chilli powder or finely chopped green chillies as needed. Traditionally black pepper powder is used, but opt to add any of these spices according to your family customs.
- Instead of neem flower, to get the bitter taste, add some soaked fenugreek seeds or ground fenugreek powder.
