Masala Oil

Flavoured Oils are sometimes so handy, You can jazz up salads, breads with ease with these oils. I make flavored oils when I dont have time enough to add lots of spices or am in a hurry or I just want to add some subtle touch of spice and flavour to normal dishes.



I mostly add such oils for my roti's. Substitute Vegetable/canola oil in this recipe with Olive oil to give enhanced taste to your salads. A touch of Indian flavour! :) I got this idea from a magazine.

Ingredients

• 1 tsp each of garam masala, coriander seeds, cardamom pods, fennel seeds.
  
  
• few curry leaves
  
  
• 1-2 red dry chilli
  
  
• 2-3 cups of Canola/sunflower oil/Olive oil
  
  

Method

1.Crush all the spices with a mortor and pestel. Or simply by the back of the spoon.



2.Place it in a sterlised jar and Pour the Oil on top.



3. Keep the Oil for 3-4 days in a cool place.



4.Strain the oil and use it for your dishes. It usually keeps well for months.
