Ghee has a great medicinal value and it is also one of the good fat source. It plays a vital role in many Indian Cuisines. I always prefer adding moderate amount of ghee in my meal which helps me in many ways. Making ghee at home is very simple and the shelf life is long lasting. I prefer home made ghee mostly because of the flavour and texture. Lets get into the recipe.....😊
