Curry-Ginger Oil

Source: Chef Ming Tsai, adapted from Simply Ming

Few foods can boast having the intensity of taste found in a flavored oil. Just a few drops of a specialty oil can complement a wide variety of foods and enhance their nutritional value by replacing such traditional, highly-saturated toppings as butter, cheese or other rich sauces. By combining the light texture and mild taste of canola oil with a potpourri of ingredients, it is easy to brighten up any dish.

Ingredients

  • 1 qt canola oil 1 L
  • 1/2 cup peeled and minced fresh ginger 125 mL
  • 1 cup Madras curry powder 250 mL

 

Instructions

1. In a large, heavy saucepan, combine the oil with the ginger and heat over medium heat until the oil is fragrant and the ginger just begins to color, about 8 minutes. Remove from the heat and cool completely, about 20 minutes.

2. Meanwhile, place a large, heavy saute pan over medium heat. Add the curry powder to the dry skillet and toast, stirring, until the curry powder smokes slightly, 8 to 10 minutes. Whisk in the ginger and oil, remove from the stove, and cool completely, 30 to 40 minutes.

3. Transfer the oil and spices to a 1- to 1 1/2-quart glass jar, scraping the pan well. Allow the mixture to stand until the oil and curry powder have separated completely, about 4 hours or overnight. The oil is now ready to use. Store in the refrigerator.

Lasts 1 month, refrigerated
