About

Dried Kashmiri chillies are good if you don’t want to use a fresh chilli as you’ll get a slightly sweet-tasting oil. If you’re using them, lightly toast them before putting them in the oil.

Put the chopped or whole chilli in a bottle and pour over the oil so the chilli is well covered. It will keep like this for up to two weeks.
