Equipment

  • Instant Pot

Ingredients

  • 2 lbs Unslted butter

Instructions

  • Turn the instant pot to saute mode for 18min
    Ghee_Step1
  • Add unsalted butter sticks and let them melt until the ghee looks clear and the milk solids turn light golden at the bottom. Stir once or twice when its melting. It may take 2min more or less depending on your instant pot and the texture you like once its cooled down.
    Ghee_Step2
  • I used Kerry gold unsalted pure irish butter. You can use any butter you like. Try to use unsalted butter as salted butter may splater more and the milk solids taste salty if you plan to eat them.
    Ghee_Step3
  • Remember the ghee keeps cooking even though the instant pot is turned off after 18min.
    Ghee_Step4
  • Keep checking on the ghee until the milk solids turn dark in color. If you still see the ghee cooking more or turning dark, remove the inner pot of the instant pot out. That way you dont burn the ghee or strain it in to a different container
    Ghee_Step5
  • Strain the ghee into a glass jar. Once its cooled down you can see the small pearls kind of texture which most of the indians like. Your homemade ghee is ready. It can be kept at room temperature and used for months,
