3 easy steps in 5 minutes
All you need are 2 cups of oil and 1/2 tsp of salt; and some optional steps to personalise your Chilli Oil.
- In the pot, toast all ingredients from the first bag containing dried shrimp, dried scallop, cinnamon stick, star anise and Sichuan peppercorns, on low heat for 2 minutes. Optional: Add other spices here such as minced garlic, ginger, onions or bay leaves for added flavour.
- Pour 2 cups of oil into the pot and continue cooking for 3 minutes. In the meantime, put contents of second bag (chilli flakes and fried shallots) and 1/2 tsp of salt into a bowl. Optional: Add more oil if you like your Chilli Oil less spicy or add more Dried Crushed Chilli for a spicier kick!
- When ready, pour hot oil and spices into the bowl. Allow Chilli Oil to cool before transferring to a glass jar. Use within 3 months. Optional: Leave the Cinnamon Stick and Star Anise in jar to continue infusing. If you prefer a milder taste, remove Cinnamon Stick and Star Anise after oil is cool.
