This pantry method perfumes clarified butter with bulgur and warm spices before it is jarred. It reads less like a modern recipe and more like a household preservation note.

Ingredients

1 ratl

fresh butter

200 g

bulgur — ≈ 1 uqiya (about 1 cup)

1 small spoon

ground spice

1/2 nutmeg

nutmeg

1/2 small spoon

turmeric

1/2 small spoon

ground fenugreek

salt — to taste

Method

Soak and rest the bulgur, then put it into the pot with the spices.

Melt the butter separately and strain it over the bulgur mixture, then cook it gently while stirring now and then until the ghee turns clear.

Let it cool slightly before pouring it into jars, then close the jars well.

Notes

Because this is a making method, the serving count is only a rough pantry estimate for scaling in the app later.
