Ghee is Indian cuisine's traditional, heritage fat made with melted butter, which has been used in cooking and many other body care routines since ages. It's made with full fat cow milk, which has been set into yoghurt and then it is churned to make butter. This butter is slow boiled to aromatic brown colour and strained , leaving the milk solids at base. It's cooled and stored glass jars and can be stored for months.
Ghee is rich in milk fats, vitamin D and A. It helps in strengthening our bones, muscles, kids brain development, gives healthy skin, improves eyesight and it's a natural beauty enhancer. It is used to moisturize skin, lips, heels and hands. I have prepared everyone's favourite veg pulao with pure ghee.
