I'm not sure what went wrong, but my dish turned out really oily. I think I may have added too much oil.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my dish didn't turn out as good as the picture. It was still edible, but it wasn't very visually appealing.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I had to add some extra spices to make it more flavorful.
