Hi Foxy,

If you use the "search" facility you will find quite a lot of stuff on ghee.

Here is one thread which you might find helpful:  http://www.curry-recipes.co.uk/curry/index.php?topic=2139.msg18068#msg18068 (http://www.curry-recipes.co.uk/curry/index.php?topic=2139.msg18068#msg18068)

i don't use ghee at all. i tried it once in base and it was way off my taste buds. i now use a little marg in base  (came up in the ashoka base) and find it's suits my taste buds.

i think some members add a little to the main dish towards the end of cooking. i would not personally full stop (unless the recipe specifically calls for it ie butter chicken - although i actually use marg in this too).
