Ingredients

  • 1 cup ghee ( clarified butter )
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1 pinch of salt

Directions

1

In a saucepan, heat the ghee over low to medium heat until it melts completely.

2

Gradually add the whole milk to the melted ghee, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon or spatula. The milk and ghee should blend together to form a smooth and creamy mixture.

3

Continue cooking the mixture over low heat, stirring occasionally, until it thickens and reaches a creamy consistency. This typically takes about 10–15 minutes.

4

Add a pinch of salt and stir to enhance the flavor.

5

For a smoother texture, you can use a whisk to further blend the eshabwe until it becomes velvety and uniform.

6

Remove the saucepan from the heat and let cool slightly before serving.
