Hot Chili Oil - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 cup dried red chili pepper (stems removed)
    1 cup oil (I prefer a blend of safflower and toasted sesame oil but any light oil can be used.)
Preparation
    Put the dried peppers in a dry frypan and set stovetop heat on high. (I use a camping stove outside) .
    Toast, roast, stir and toss the peppers until they get dark in areas but are still basically red and they become very AROMATIC.
    Let them cool a bit and then put them in a food processor with the oil.
    Process for a few moments.
    Pour into a nice container and keep it on your table.
    It will be gone in no time--.
