Spanish Style Garlic and Parsley Flavored Olive Oil

This Spanish condiment can be used as an ingredient in your favorite dishes, as a drizzle on salads and grilled vegetables or simply for dipping bread. I make this in mini batches with good results. This recipe comes from Madhur Jaffrey from a friend in Andalusia.

• Ready In: 17 mins
• Serves: 8

Ingredients

• 1  cup olive oil
• 5 -6  garlic cloves, peeled and finely minced
• 3⁄4 teaspoon salt
• 1  tablespoon  finely chopped parsley

Directions

1. Place the oil and garlic in a small saucepan over medium to low heat. Bring the oil to a simmer and let it bubble for just 5 seconds. (Seconds not minutes.) Turn the heat off.
2. Let the oil and garlic sit for 15 minutes to allow the garlic to infuse the oil. Stir in the salt and parsley.
3. The oil is now ready to use or it can be stored for up to a week. If storing, return to room temperature before using.
