Thanks freebeex3 this sounds great to me - in fact I think I will make this today


PS: I have no what Ghee is, but I DO know what vegetable oil is rotflmao Could I use olive oil instead?

I would imagine olive would be fine..
Ghee- is an everyday ingeredient in Eastern cooking, Indian above the rest. The western world has its version -clarified butter-but true ghee is cooked more slowly and has a stronger flavor. To make ghee, butter is heated until the milk solids are skimmed off and saved and are sometimes used for flavoring vegetables. What is left after the solids are removed is a clear, yellow liquid: Ghee. Ghee doesn't burn at high temperatures, and it does not go rancid nearly as quickly as whole butter..
I have a recipe for it but much easier to use oil!!!
