How ¼ cup of ghee works out
One US cup of ghee weighs 208 grams, so multiply by 0.25 to get a quarter cup: 208 × 0.25 = 52 g. In the other direction, 52 g of ghee divided by 208 brings you back to ¼ cup.
If you have no scales, ¼ cup is 4 level tablespoons of ghee (12 teaspoons), because a US cup holds 16 tablespoons. In a 250 ml metric cup — the Australian, New Zealand and modern UK standard — the same fraction is 54.9 g.
Tip: Measure ghee melted and liquid for accuracy; scooping it solid traps air pockets and undershoots the weight.
