Ghee
Ghee is a clarified butter that originated in ancient India. It is commonly used in the cuisine of India and neighboring countries.
Vegness
Commercial ghee is not dairy-free and is definitely not vegan, but can be made so at home by using vegan butter instead. Butter made from oil with a high smoke point, like safflower, sunflower, or canola work best.
Coconut oil has a similar amount of saturated fats to ghee.
