This recipe looks like that of a mixed vegetable, indian style, and has nothing whatsoever to do with specifically jaipur.

For a reason or the other I have developed a taste for extra vergin olive oil rather than ghee. I understand it is also a healthier alternative to replace ghee which is not always available and most people are not familiar with ghee.
