Homemade Ghee

ghee,.

As I have been making lot of sweets for Diwali ,I have used almost 2 liters of ghee so far.Still running out of ghee and sugar everyday.So thought of making a post on Homemade ghee from butter.I never buy ghee from the stores for they are very expensive and doesn’t smell that good too.
Homemade ghee when made with drumstick leaves is so flavourful and the sweets made from homemade ghee tastes so divine.Also you get more quantity for the same money you give it to the store bought ones.Do try this ghee with the step wise pictures and make delicious sweets for Diwali and for other special occasions at home.
