Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make this casserole vegan?
Absolutely—use olive oil instead of ghee and skip any dairy toppings; the dish is naturally plant‑based and just as flavorful.
What if I don’t have garam masala?
Combine equal parts cumin, coriander, cardamom, and a pinch of cinnamon to approximate the warm, aromatic blend.
