Ghee is a type of clarified butter that is made by melting unsalted butter until all the water is boiled off and the proteins have settled to the bottom. The resulting liquid on top is the ghee that is skimmed off and used in Indian and Egyptian cuisine.


Ghee is often found in recipes that also contain garam masala, whipping cream, cardamom, almonds and yogurt
