Homemade Curry Leaf Powder & Ghee

I got a bunch of good curry leaves my last trip to Chicago so I decided to make some Curry Leaf Powder ... and I also made some ghee... The powder is actually darker than this picture shows, and the ghee is lighter... Apparently I still don't know how to take or edit photographs!

I love making homemade ghee- the smell reminds me of growing up! Sadly my housemate hates it and forbids me to make it :(

Luckily I don't care and secretly make it when they're not home... mwahaha! :D
