i have an abundance of chilli,s starting to ripen, and am sick of paying $25 a bottle for chilli oil, (we go through so much)the last time i tried to make some, the chilli,s went mouldy. Does anyone have a failsafe recipe that keeps well.

The commercially produced ones are done with the necessary safety nets in place.Home made you do run the risk of poisoning yourself, and/or getting botulism.Do be careful.
With my chillis I dry them, make Sweet Chilli Sauce, and Chilli Sambal...like a chilli jam.

welderman... Pick your chillies when nice and red, wash and dry, place in a labelled zip top bag, removing air and place in freezer... when you need chilli oil.. remove a few and slit lengthways and remove seeds.. place some cheap olive oil into a small frypan, about half a cup and turn heat up to high to cook the oil and once bubbling hot, turn the heat off.. Immediately place the strips of chillies into the oil, skin side up and swirl around in the oil.. leave loosely covered on the stove until it cools and pour ALL into a glass and place this into the refrigerator covered for 2 days.. strain the oil into a small bottle and use within the following week or so...I find it best to make small quantities when and as needed...

just to add... boil the small bottle for about 5-10 mins including the cap... I strain thru muslin cloth which is sitting in a sieve...can be a bit slow and time consuming but necessary...
