Ghee is butter from which the lactose and proteins have been removed by heating it.

It's ideal for people who watch their cholesterol , or who are on a weight-loss diet.

Where to find ghee?

You can find it in most organic stores or oriental grocery stores.

Or simply on the internet, here.

But you can especially do it yourself with this recipe.

Opt for hazelnut, pistachio or peanut paste.

My little indulgence:sesame paste. A real delight on warm toast.

Already, because the avocado has a very sweet taste and for breakfast it is very pleasant.

But also, because it's super healthy :no fat, no bad sugars, and full of fiber and vitamins.

But if the composition is correct, then it is one of the best alternatives to butter.
