Homemade Chilli Oil

neutral flavoured oil

cinnamon

star anise

bay leaves

ginger (about 1 inch)

onion,

sesame seeds

garlic,

salt

Sichuan peppercorns ((optional))

soy sauce

Start by heating 1 cup of any neutral flavoured oil.

Once the oil is hot (you can test this  by inserting a wooden chopstick inside the oil, which should cause small bubbles at the surface), add your aromatics and spices : cinnamon stick, bay leaves, star anise, ginger and the onion

Stirring occasionally, let these aromatics simmer in the oil for 20-30 minutes for the flavours to fully infuse. Then strain out the hot oil.

Meanwhile in a heatproof bowl, gather together the chilli flakes, sesame seeds, minced garlic, ground Sichuan peppercorns (if adding) and a pinch of salt.

Pour the hot infused oil over the spice mixture you’ve just prepared. Let it sizzle  , then give it a stir and add the soy sauce.

Store this chilli oil in an airtight container. Keep refrigerated for up to 2-3 months and enjoy a spoonful (or few!) over anything and everything!
