Garlic Lemongrass Chili Oil
Garlic Lemongrass Chili Oil: A fusion of savory garlic, zesty lemongrass, and spicy chili peppers, creating a versatile and aromatic condiment.
Ingredients
- 8-10 Cloves Garlic minced
- 1/2 Cup Chilli Flakes
- 2-3 Tbsp Chilli Powder 2 Tbsp is good but if you want it really spicy, add another
- 3 Stalks Lemongrass put through processor or blender
- 1 Tbsp Sesame Seeds
- 2 Tbsp Salt
- 1 Tbsp Onion Powder
- 2-3 Cups Oil vegetable oil is what I use, any oil you prefer is good! Note if you want to use LESS oil, you can! I use more as I like to use the oil for everyday use like frying eggs.
Instructions
- On low-medium heat, add in all your ingredients aside from oil to a frying pan and let the ingredients toast and get it's aroma out! Keep stirring so nothing burns.
- After a few minutes, place a small sauce pot with your oil to heat up. Ideally, your oil should NOT be the temperature you'd fry foods in. A good spot to hit if you're being specific is about 225-250F or 110-120C. I usually just let it heat up for a few minutes!
- Once your oil is hot, turn off the stove and pour all your seasonings into the oil. Let infuse for an hour or two.
- Once the oil has cooled down, it is ready to store or use! Enjoy!
