To do this, take a saucepan with a thick bottom, cut the oil in it and put on a slow fire. As melting on top of the foam is formed, which must be removed. Gradually, the oil will become transparent, and at the bottom will start to accumulate liquid residue - it contains water and impurities. Continue to remove the foam and, when the oil will be completely transparent, it is ready. Allow it to cool for 10 minutes, add the ground spices: turmeric, ginger (powder), cinnamon (for children, for adults - freshly ground black pepper, cardamom, cloves (all in 1 tbsp) and refrigerate.
