Method:-

Now add  the 2 tbsp of thick curd do not mix and when u add the curd ,there will be lot of bubbling and gurgling.Don't panic.Reduce the flame to low, uncovered and undisturbed for 30 minutes until milk-solid on the bottom of the pan turn from white to beige-brown,and butter on the top becomes transparent like clear water.

This is the signal to turn of the heat.Please take caution not to burn the bottom part.

Remove the ghee from the heat and let it cool.
