Ghee or liquid gold as we call it is a very tasty and nutritious way to add healthy fats to your diet. It is one of the most used forms of fat for cooking in Indian cuisine. Ghee is a form of clarified butter created by skimming the milk solids out of melted butter, hence it is Whole 30 compatible. It is both nutritious and imparts a rich nutty flavor to dishes.

Cook Mode

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

Place a large pot on the stove and add the butter to it
Switch on the heat and let the butter melt on medium heat
Once it is melted, reduce the heat to low and keep cooking. There will be a lot of foam/froth formed half way through the process as the milk solids start separating
Once the milk solids start turning light brown, switch off the stove and move the pot away from heat (The ghee will start turning further brown if left on the heat of the stove)
You can add curry or moringa leaves at this point (optional)
When the ghee has cooled down, use a sieve and filter out the milk solids
Transfer the ghee to a metal or glass container. If using glass make sure the ghee is not hot as hot ghee can crack the glass
Enjoy the freshly made ghee in all your dishes as a replacement for oil
