Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 cup oil, see notes
  • 1 shallot, quartered
  • 3 cloves garlic, finely sliced
  • 3 tbsp + 1 tsp red chili flakes
  • 1 1/2 tbsp golden mountain sauce

Instructions

  • Finely slice the garlic and quarter the shallots.
  • 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.
