Wok Oil

Wok oil is nothing but a 'three in one' flavored oil of ginger , garlic and red chillies. The oil preferred here is peanut oil or any vegetable oil. This is because it has high boiling point. This is a short cut method to have the ginger and garlic flavor infused in the oil when you are ready to cook rather than doing them each time you commence with your cooking.You can even add some sesame seeds(1/4tspn) if it is an ordinary vegetable oil.


The process is very simple -

• Heat oil and add the ginger, red chillies and garlic in proportion to the oil according to your personal flavor and boil it for 10 min.at medium low flame. Usually adopted quantities of each are:-

        Ginger sliced-2 tblspn

        Garlic sliced-2 tblspn   

        Red chillies-1 tspn chrushed

        Oil- 1 cup
