I remember if amma makes ghee she will add drumstick leaves for flavour. After she made ghee, we will have that ghee fried murungai keerai.
Ghee has lots of health benefits and it is good to consume by the kids. Aishu will not have anything without ghee or curd. She no needs any chutney or curry, will have idli and dosa with only ghee and curd. Akshu loves dal rice and rasam rice with ghee so ghee plays an important role in our family. Happy that I no need to buy ghee from the store anymore.
