Instructions

  1. Cut off the heads and fry the tuyo in hot oil over high heat until the scales start to come off a bit. Place fried tuyo on a plate with a paper towel.
  2. Remove the scales and soft parts. Can also be flaked and de-boned. Arrange the fried tuyo in a glass jar.
  3. In a saucepan under medium-high heat, combine the olive/sunflower/corn oil, garlic and red chili pepper, bay leaves, peppercorns and olives. Bring to a boil and add paprika powder. Cook just until the garlic becomes tender and slightly browned.
  4. Pour the oil mixture into the jar of tuyo, let it cool down before storing in the refrigerator. Store for at least 3 days before serving to allow flavors to blend.
  5. Serve with steaming hot rice.

Notes

  • If you like olives, I highly recommend adding them. It adds a distinct, slightly tangy flavor that goes really well into the blend.
  • This recipe is only slightly hot and spicy, you can add more chili if you prefer it really spicy.
  • I also added some mild red chili and crushed them a bit while cooking to add more color in oil.
  • You can also add some pickled green chili peppers that are not so spicy for munching on.
