I took the picture right after I made the scallion oil. Then I took out all the scallions and used them in the noodle dish as a topping. For storage, you’ll need to remove the scallions and keep only the oil in storage jars. Hope this clarify the confusion. Happy cooking!

Your recipe says to discard the scallions and bottle the oil, but your pictures show the scallion tops in a storage jar with the oil. Do you store the scallion greens in the oil or toss them away?
Thanks.

Wow Wei!
Thanks for the info! I have the garlic (Chinese no less!) and the oil! I see a new jar appearing in my fridge this New Year weekend!

I’d recommend you use 2 heads of garlic for 480ml of oil for a strong garlicky flavour.

It would be a shame to discard the fried onions. I can imagine how delicious your Thai mixed veggie stir-fry was!

Wow Wei
Having read the question about garlic oil … what sort of quantity of sliced garlic to 480ml oil? Or smaller quantity of oil?

Hello Wei
Last night I made a new batch of this. The last batch ran out but I love it! BTW in a cold fridge it lasts longer than your recipe suggests – but food safety first!
The bit I loved in your notes was that the onion and spring onion strained out of the oil could be used in a stir-fry. That’s exactly what I did tonight. They made a great addition to a Thai mixed vege stir-fry! I’m pan-Asian cuisine LOL!

You could. Cut garlic cloves into thin slices. Fry until they become dry but not burnt. Remove the garlic and store the oil (you can use the fried garlic as a topping for noodles).

Thank you for this recipe. Can I make garlic oil in a similar way.

I wouldn’t leave them in the oil for too long. Use them as toppings for noodle or rice dishes after you make the oil.
