- 3 scallion whites ,must
- 1 tsp. Sichuan peppercorn ,must
- 8 whole white pepper
- 1 Amomum tsao-ko ,Cao Guo
- 3 amomum kravanh ,White Dou Kou
Instructions
- Place around 1 cup of red pepper powder in a bowl. Stir in 3 tablespoons of clean water. Combine and let the pepper flakes absorb the water. If you want a crispy version, then skip mixing in the water.
- Pour around 3 cups of oil into a wok, add scallion, coriander, white onion, and smashed ginger first because they contain water. Heat over a slow fire until the aromatics begin to wither. Place all the spices in.
- Continue heating with slow fire for another 6 to 8 minutes until the contents are all withered and browned. Take out all of the spices and aromatics.
- Heat the oil for another 2 or 3 minutes until slightly smoky. Pour ⅓ of the oil to the bowl. Mix to combine.
- Repeat the above process twice to add all oil to the pepper flakes. Add toasted sesame seeds.
- Keep the chili oil in an air-tight container and this can be kept for up to one month at room temperature.
