Hot Chili Oil

    Hot Chile Oil

½ cup peanut or vegetable oil
3 T crushed red-pepper flakes

Heat oil in a wok or small skillet until hot but not smoking.  Carefully add pepper flakes and remove from heat.  Let stand until completely cool.  Transfer to a glass jar; store, covered in a cool place, up to 2 days.  If you like you can strain it at this time, reserving oil and flakes separately, up to 5 days.
