August 14, 2026 · 4 min read

Ghee is not just for festive food. It lifts everyday meals with almost no effort.

1. Tadka

Bloom mustard seeds, cumin and curry leaves in a spoon of ghee, then pour over dal.

2. On roti

Brush warm ghee on roti or paratha. Simple, classic, better than butter.

3. Roasting vegetables

Toss roots and greens in ghee before roasting for a nutty finish.

4. Coffee or bulletproof

A small spoon in black coffee gives steady energy for some people.

5. Finishing touch

A dab over khichdi or rice just before serving changes the whole bowl.
