La Artesanal Peanut Chilli Oil 200g
This Peanut Chilli Oil is a rich and smoky Mexican-style hot sauce made with roasted peanuts and morita chilli peppers. It has a bold, nutty flavour with a deep heat that builds gradually. The roasted peanuts give it a satisfying crunch, while the morita chilli – a smoked variety of jalapeño – adds a slightly sweet, smoky kick. Packed in a 200g jar, it’s the perfect blend of spicy, savoury, and crunchy.
Chilli oils like this are a staple in many Mexican kitchens, often spooned over dishes to add both flavour and texture. The morita chilli is less intense than other dried chillies but brings a strong smoky taste, making it ideal for pairing with nuts like peanuts. This combination is popular in modern salsas machas, which combine chilli heat with fried seeds or nuts in oil for a unique twist on traditional hot sauce.
Use it to top tacos, grilled meats, roasted vegetables, rice, or noodle dishes. It’s also great with eggs, cheese boards, or even as a dipping oil with bread. Stir before use to mix the oil and solids. Store in a cool, dry place and refrigerate after opening.
