Steaming hot Potstickers dunked in Chilli Oil, Soy Sauce and loads of fresh julienned Ginger. This is how I’ve loved eating dumplings for years. I’ve never made Chili Oil or dumplings at home, however I’m so glad I gave in and gave it a try. I have a long way to go with my dumpling making skills however this Chilli Oil is on point. .

Although there are many different ways you can make Chili Oil with various herbs, spices etc, I absolutely love how magical garlic and sesame tastes with red chillies.
