I love the chili oil at Chinese restaurants in the Silicon Valley and in Toronto, and have been spending a small fortune buying the bottled, ultra-salty stuff at the store. So I asked my friend (from the Sichuan province) for her recipe. Be warned, this one is SPICY - go easy on the servings until you get a feel for it! You can use it as a sauce on top of your favourite Chinese food, or just use a tablespoonful while you're cooking to give your homemade dishes that extra zing! And, of course, it's a great dipping sauce for just about anything ... Yes, this recipe is pretty much all fat. However, I eat it often enough that I need to know the calories it contributes to my body! :)

How Do I Make Home-made Chili Oil?

- Place the chili flakes, minced onion, garlic and half the salt in the jar and mix well (I just screw the lid on and shake it up).- Heat the peanut oil in a heavy-bottomed pan (a cast iron wok works beautifully) until it just begins to smoke (peanut oil heats up really fast, so watch it carefully)- Take the pan off the heat and let it sit for a minute or two- Pour the hot oil into the container with the other ingredients- Let it cool for an hour or two, and taste for salt, adding more if needed (this depends entirely on your tastebuds!)- Store, tightly sealed, at room temperature.Enjoy.
