Thai Oil Recipe
This is wonderful for salad dressings, marinating, sauteing, brushing over foods to be grilled, or tossing with cooked veggies.

Ingredients
  • 4 stalks lemongrass (check your local Asian market)
  • 4 sprigs fresh cilantro
  • 2 dried red chilies, split
  • 1 garlic clove
  • 3 cups sunflower oil

Directions
  1. Lightly bruise the lemongrass with the flat side of a large knife on a chopping board. Lightly crush the cilantro between your hands, then put into a jar or bottle with the lemongrass, chilies, and garlic. Pour in the oil, cover tightly, and shake well. Leave for 2 weeks.
  2. Discard the garlic (use a long skewer to spear it). Cover again and seal. The oil is now ready for using. Store in cool dark, dry place and use within 6 months.
  3. Makes about 3 cups.
