Ghee is ideal for Indian cooking due to its high smoke point, allowing it to be used for frying and sautéing without breaking down into harmful chemicals. It is often thought to be high in saturated fat when compared to other edible oils but in reality, its saturated fat content is quite similar to oils like coconut and groundnut oil.
