Instructions to make Chili Oil:
- Add cinnamon, bay leaves, star anise, coriander, fennel seeds, szechuan peppercorns to a wok on medium high heat, and toast until fragrant while constantly tossing to ensure they don't burn on one side (2-3 minutes, do not burn)
- Pour oil into a heavy saucepan, add toasted spices, de-seeded chili's, 2 smashed garlic cloves, and 5g knob of ginger. Bring oil up to 250F and cook the spices for 10-15 minutes to infuse oil with their flavours
- While infusing, toast sesame seeds (doesn't take long, less than 1 minute)
- Strain the oil into a clean heavy saucepan, and put the clean oil back on heat until oil reaches 350F
- Put chili flakes in a LARGE HEAT PROOF bowl or large heavy saucepan.
- Once oil has reached 350F, pour half of it into the LARGE HEAT PROOF bowl. The oil will bubble and expand when it hits the chili flakes, so make sure the HEAT PROOF bowl is LARGE enough to not overflow.
- Set the remaining oil aside and allow to cool to about 250F. While oil is cooling, mince the remaining 5g of Ginger and 3 cloves of Garlic. Don't add them during the first pour or they could burn.
- When the oil has cooled to 250, add the garlic, ginger, salt, sesame seeds, sugar to the chili flakes and then pour the remining oil in and mix to combine
- Wait until mixture has reached room temperature and then store in a jar or other airtight container.
- Ready to serve and ENJOY!
One makes it by heating vegetable oil and infusing it with red chili flakes and other spices. In Chinese, it's called là jiāo yóu (辣椒油), which translates to chili pepper oil, or simply là yóu (辣油, spicy oil). Once cooled, you can taste the oil. If it's to your liking, strain the oil to remove the crushed chile peppers. If you'd like more heat and flavor, cover the oil and allow it to infuse overnight or for as long as desired before straining—if choosing to do so, as the crushed chile will settle on the bottom of the jar, and you can use it along with the oil as a condiment.
