Making onion oil

 Onion oil is used in a lot of Asian cooking. Basically it’s cooking oil infused with onions, garlic, ginger and sometimes chilies and peppercorns. 

You start by heating up cooking oil in a wok, then adding chopped onions, onion greens, garlic/ginger and constantly stir it. Takes about 20 minutes to cook out the flavours from the onions into the oil. Once cooked, you strain the oil and filter thru a cloth. Now it’s ready to be used for very flavourful cooking.
