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) shopping list
- 4 sprigs fresh cilantro shopping list
- 2 dried red chilies, split shopping list
- 1 garlic clove shopping list
- 3 cups sunflower oil shopping list
How to make it
- 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.
- 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.
- Makes about 3 cups.
