Chilli oil
Chilli oil is a popular condiment made by infusing oil with dried red chili peppers and other spices. It adds a kick of heat and flavor to dishes such as stir-fries, noodles, and dumplings.
Ingredients
- 1 cup of vegetable oil
- 6-8 dried red chili peppers (adjust to taste)
- 2 cloves garlic smashed
- 1 teaspoon Sichuan peppercorns (optional)
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds (optional)
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, heat the vegetable oil over low heat.
- Add the dried red chili peppers, smashed garlic cloves, Sichuan peppercorns, and sesame seeds to the oil.
- Let the mixture simmer over low heat for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Be careful not to burn the ingredients.
- Once the oil is infused with the flavors and the chili peppers have softened, remove the saucepan from the heat and let it cool to room temperature.
- Strain the oil to remove the solids and transfer the infused oil to a clean container.
- Store the chilli oil in an airtight jar or bottle at room temperature.
- You can drizzle this homemade chilli oil over noodles, rice dishes, or anything that could use a spicy kick. Enjoy!
