How to Make Garlic Oil and Perfect Crispy Fried Garlic at Home

olive oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: canola oil

Canola oil is less expensive and has a neutral flavor.

Peel the garlic using a pounding method to remove the skins quickly.

Wash the peeled garlic.

Heat the cooking oil in a pan for about 4-5 minutes until hot.

Pound the garlic to break it down, leaving it in larger pieces if desired.

Once the oil is hot, add the garlic to the oil, spreading it out to fry evenly.

Fry the garlic until it changes color, then remove it from the pan.

To ensure the garlic stays crispy, spread it out on a strainer or cooling rack to drain excess oil.

Drain the oil again to remove any garlic pieces, ensuring a pure garlic oil.

Once cooled, store the crispy garlic in an airtight jar and the garlic oil in a bottle.
