In a saucepan or wok, heat a neutral oil over medium heat. Add garlic and shallots, frying until they turn golden brown. You have the option to either keep them in the condiment or remove them.
Turn off the heat and add dried chili flakes and golden mountain sauce, gently stirring to blend the flavors. Let the oil cool down before transferring it to a jar.
Notes
Use the nutrition card in this recipe as a guideline.
Oil - Use a neutral oil with high smoke point, such as vegetable oil or sunflower oil.
Chili oil does not need to be refrigerated but should be stored in a cool, dark place in an airtight container, like a glass jar, away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
Properly stored, chili oil can last up to six months while maintaining its best flavor and quality.
