Introduction
These are good on salads and as a garnish for stir-fries and soups, Asian or otherwise. The recipe is adapted from James Oseland’s Cradle of Flavor.
Ingredients
| ~ | Peanut oil |
| ~ | Garlic cloves, peeled and trimmed and cut into paper-thin slices |
Steps
- Pour one inch of oil into a small saucepan. Heat over medium-high to 365 degrees.
- Add the garlic slices (working in batches if you have more than ½ cup of slices) and stir gently but constantly with a slotted spoon until they turn golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove the garlic to paper towels. Use immediately or store in a sealed container in the refrigerator up to 1 week.

Hello There!
I always do it.
My question is, what is the effect on the much acclaimed health benefits of garlic when we fry it to this extent?
Much regards,
Ra.
PS. At times, I add ginger and chilli to it and it tastes better than garlic alone.
