Is Indian food completely off limits? ghee is clarified(or refined) butter.. a lot of indian food uses it...you just have to ask... some resturants here in the bay area do not use it, some do, you can ask them not to cook with it, it all depends.... thai food is famous for shrimp paste vietnamese fer fish sauce you just can't win sometimes.... you just have to be careful, and ask before you order good luck fraggle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 4, 2001 Report Share Posted November 4, 2001 Indian food may mostly be cooked with ghee, but much of it seems to be vegetable ghee nowadays, so you may still be okay, you just have to ask them. _______________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
