Chilli Oil

Chilli Oil is a spicy oil-based condiment common in Chinese, Japanese and other East Asian cuisines, used to add heat and aroma to noodles, dumplings and stir-fries; variations may include toasted chili flakes, garlic and crunchy bits. It is very oil-forward — providing 100g of fat per 100 g — so it’s typically used sparingly as a flavoring rather than a bulk ingredient. While low in protein and fiber, chili oil contributes flavorful unsaturated fats and small amounts of vitamin K and omega-3s from the base oil, and the chili itself brings heat and some antioxidants; overall it’s best enjoyed in small amounts as a condiment rather than a primary source of nutrition.
