Instructions

  1. Place the garlic, shallots, and both chili flakes in a large heat-proof bowl, in that order. Add the sugar, salt and soy sauce.
  2. Heat the oil in a tall small saucepan to 360°F to 370°F (182°C to 187°C).
  3. Carefully pour the hot oil over the chili mixture. It will sizzle strongly, so take care.
  4. Stir with a long spatula or chopsticks until the dry chili flakes look wet and no longer dry.
  5. Let it cool. The chili flakes will sink and an oil layer will form on top.
  6. Store in a jar for later, or serve right away.
