Tarla Dalal    Hi Shweta : please use the olive oil. This is good fat. Olive oil is a strong antioxidant and good for heart. Also its has anti inflammation properties. This is one of the healthiest oil you can opt for. It has around 77% of MUFA. You will lose weight with this recipe as it is healthy.
