How to make Chinese garlic sauce restaurant version step by step:
Step 1: Peel the garlic and wash it. (It is easier to peel the skin off the garlic if you crush it first.)
Step 2: Dice up the garlic using a knife. (Using a food processor will cut it too fine. I don’t recommend to use a tool like this. You only need 5 minutes to finish cutting the garlic by hand.)
Step 3: Cut the green and red onions.
Step 4: Heat the pan and pour 400ml oil into a pan. Add the star anise, bay leaves, green and red onions.
Step 5: Warm over medium heat, and the oil will start to sizzle.
Step 6: When the ingredients start to turn brown and fried, turn off the heat.
Step 7: All the ingredients in the pot are removed.
Step 8: Once the temperature of the oil drops, add the garlic.
Step 9. Slowly bring the heat of the oil back up, using a spoon to keep stirring so as not to stick to the bottom.
Step 10: Season with salt.
Step 11: Stir even, turn off the heat.
After cooling, store in a sterile glass bottle. Put it in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. You now have your own, homemade, all natural, delicious garlic sauce to add to all of your favorite dishes!
