Ghee residue biscuits recipe | desi ghee residue cookies with step wise pictorial and video method.

Desi ghee residue is such a versatile ingredient which has always been underrated.

For quite a long time, it wasn’t known to many that it can be used in cooking. Mostly it used to meet the dustbin after making desi ghee from malai or butter.

When we realised that this waste is actually so useful, we tried it in number of recipes and believe, they are were outstanding.

So like these biscuits. They are so delicious and yummy that you can not resist to have them all in one go.

FEW TIPS

• First and foremost important thing is to taste the ghee residue. It shouldn’t have sour or burnt smell or taste. Discard in case you don’t find it good on your tongue. If you proceed with the spoiled residue, all your efforts, ingredients and money go waste. So behave wisely.
• Whole wheat flour is used to make these biscuits healthy. However you can used all purpose flour or both in the ratio of 50:50.
• Likewise jaggery can be replaced with sugar.
• Semolina can be skipped but better add it to bring extra crispness to biscuits.
• A pinch of salt in sweet recipes always necessary to bring out the flavour.
