We through a lot of Olive Oil
It's wonderful stuff and works for everything.
I never used to fry spices at all, only dry roast them, but my Gujurati mother-in-law does it this way and I've started to follow suit.
Garlic burns in 8 milliseconds and that tastes horrid. This curry is simmered long enough to let the garlic permeate.
I wrote, recorded and mixed that "music" in less time that it took to cook the curry, so yes, it's awful, sorry. :-)

Can you ask your mother in law a question for me?
My mother in law is Bengali but grew up in Gujarat. Her Gujarti friends taught her a recipe that is the most amazing side dish ever.
It's made with green beans, green chilis, peas and asafetida. You eat it with brown chapatis.
MoL doesn't speak Gujarati, and no one seems to know what it's called. We just know it as "the bean thing". Can you ask her if she knows what it is?

frying powdered spices in oil is totally fine I usually add a little water to bring the temp down a little
especially if you're starting off toasting mustard seeds etc - the pan can easily get too hot
