Authentic method of barbecue red oil

Barbecue is a delicacy we often eat, especially in the summer, it is very pleasant to get together with a few friends to eat barbecue. In addition to eating out, we can also choose to cook it ourselves at home. The materials and tools are easy to find. The key is that many people don’t know how to prepare ingredients such as barbecue red oil. So, what is the authentic way to make barbecue red oil? Let’s take a look below.

Ingredients: 500 grams of rapeseed oil (pure rapeseed oil is best), 40 grams of ginger, 50 grams of green onion stems, 20 grams of coriander, 50 grams of garlic, 3 grams of star anise, 3 grams of cinnamon, 3 grams of bay leaves, 3 grams of fennel, and 3 grams of pepper.

Preparation method:

(1) Crush the ginger and cut into pieces. Wash and cut the onion stems into sections. Remove the leaves of the cilantro and cut into sections. Peel the garlic, crush it and cut into small pieces for later use.

(2) Mix star anise, cinnamon, bay leaves, fennel and peppercorns together and soak in hot water for 30 minutes. Then filter with a fine strainer and set aside.

(3) Heat the pickle oil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low. Add the chopped ginger, green onion, garlic, and coriander and fry until the water is dry (fry until the ingredients turn golden and the aroma is released).

(4) Pour in the soaked and drained spices and continue frying over low heat until the moisture is completely dried up. When the aroma is full, turn off the heat and let cool.

(5) Remove all the fried residue and the barbecue oil is ready.

Tips:

Control the heat well. After putting the spices into the pot, use low heat to simmer slowly until they are fragrant. Do not rush and use medium or high heat to fry, otherwise the ingredients will be burnt and will taste bad when brushed on the barbecue.

It is best to store barbecue oil that is not used up or in excess in a porcelain container.
