Fried Garlic Chips

Ingredients

• 1 cup oil
• 1/4 cup very thinly sliced garlic (about 12 large cloves)

Directions

1. 1

   In wok or cast iron skillet, ( I use my anodized pot with no problem, just be sure it's heavy-bottomed), bring the oil to deep fry temperature, about 350°F

2. 2

   Add garlic and fry, stirring and tossing, until a golden brown, taking care not to let any of it burn. This only takes 1-2 minutes.

3. 3

   Remove with slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

4. 4

   (Do Crispy Shallots in this same oil, then save the flavorful oil for cooking.).

5. 5

   Cool garlic to room temperature and store in tightly covered container for a week, or a little more. It likely will not last that long!
