This chili onion crunch oil recipe is my “copycat” version of Trader Joe’s classic Chili Onion Crunch. It is so easy to make your own, and it only takes 5 minutes!
Heat a small pan over low-medium heat. When the pan is hot, add the dried onions, garlic and crushed red pepper flakes. Toast the spices for 2-3 minutes while occasionally stirring to prevent burning.
Add the toasted dried onions, garlic and crushed red pepper flakes to a bowl or jar with the paprika and salt. Top if off with ¼ cup of olive oil or more more as needed until the spices are covered. Mix well.
Notes
Uses: add to a bowl of ramen noodles, drizzle on soups, fried eggs or avocado toast!
