    Homemade Chilli Oil 

    I have been planning to make singapore fried rice for a while. Then i found that it need chilli oil in it. So kind of stayed away from it because of lazyness. But i started receiving mails from lots of viewers asking for this recipe. So decided to try it out..

    Ingredients for Homemade Chilli Oil

    • Oil - 1 cup ( I used Sunflower Oil)
    • Dry Red Chilli - 7 to 8
    • Red Chilli Flakes - 3 tbsp
    As a first step i made the oil, then i used that in the rice and it was really good. I started using that oil in my other curries and finished it. You can drizzle a little bit of this oil in the soups too to give it a little kick. So try this out and let me know how it turned out..

    Be sure you checked my Singapore fried recipe too..

    How to Make Homemade Chilli Oil

    1. Take oil in a sauce pan and heat it up.
    2. Add in dry red chilli and let it simmer for a min.
    3. Now add in chilli flakes and switch off the flame.
    4. Let it sit on couter top till it is cold.
    5. Now pour this oil over a strainer and let it drip.
    6. Store this oil in a clean bottle and use in your cooking.

      Do we have to cut the red chillies? If we fry it as whole, don't they explode?
      Thanks

      I was glad to see this recipe – I've not seen one for authentic bean stew oil. Thankful for the association for Sichuan pepper drops. It's helpful for those of us who live in common America and need to go 50 miles to an Asian engraving
