Nutritional values
Ghee has a firm place in Ayurveda. The clarified butter provides no milk protein and hardly any water, so the edible fat withstands higher cooking and frying temperatures. In addition, the golden preciousness is characterized by easily digestible fatty acids.
If you prefer to make the curry with cashews vegetarian, just use tofu instead of chicken and replace the chicken broth with vegetable broth.
