Steps:
- Slice or chop your garlic cloves in your desired shape. I like using a mandolin with a cut-proof glove to get ultra-skinny slices, but be careful if you don't have a glove.
- Deep-frying: Use about 1 ½ inch of oil from the bottom of your pot and heat it up to about 300 °F. (I used about 2 cups of vegetable oil for my 3.5-quart pot). Add your garlic and swirl to ensure all the garlic is properly coated and cook until it's lightly golden brown, about 3-5 minutes. Do not leave the pot unattended because it goes from pale to brown quickly. Transfer to a paper towel to drain.
- Pan-frying: Use a small pan to combine the garlic and just enough oil to cover the garlic. Pan-fry until they are slightly golden brown (they continue to brown and cook after you transfer them), about 3-5 minutes, and move them onto a paper towel to drain.
- Serve the fried garlic fresh after it's cooled to the touch.
- You have the option to save the deep-frying oil once it's cooled down for later use. (Note: if you end up burning the oil from too much deep-frying you should not reuse this oil. Signs of burned or overused oil are dark brown coloring and smells burned).

Steps:
- If cooking on stovetop: Combine chopped garlic and oil in a 2-quart saucepan or wok. Place over medium-high heat and cook, stirring frequently with a heat-resistant rubber spatula, until garlic begins to bubble steadily, 2 to 3 minutes. Continue cooking, stirring frequently and scraping down the sides and bottom of the saucepan to ensure even cooking and prevent garlic from sticking and scorching, until garlic turns pale golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes longer. Working quickly, pour contents of saucepan into prepared strainer set over bowl. (Garlic will continue cooking for a brief period after draining, so do not allow it to get too dark.) If cooking in microwave: Combine garlic and oil in a large microwave-safe bowl and stir to break up any clumps. Microwave on high power for 5 minutes. Stir with a heat-resistant rubber spatula, scraping down sides of the bowl. Continue to microwave in 2-minute increments, stirring between each round, until garlic begins to turn lightly golden, 4 to 8 minutes total. Microwave in 30-second increments, stirring between each round, until evenly pale golden brown, 30 seconds to 1 minute and 30 seconds longer. Working quickly, pour contents of bowl into strainer set over bowl. (Garlic will continue cooking for a brief period after draining, so do not allow it to get too dark.)

CRISPY GARLIC IN OIL
This nutty, garlicky treasure appears frequently in Thai soups and stews. I really brings a simple bowl of noodles to or brothy soup to sparkling life. A small spoonful does wonders for sauces, dressings, and marinades. Use it anywhere you'd like a warm, toasty note without the edginess of the raw stinking rose. Once you get used to having this stuff around you'll how you ever got by without it. It will keep about a week in the fridge, but it's simple enough to make a fresh batch while your soup simmers.

Steps:
- Heat a small skillet over low heat.
- Add the oil and heat until a bit of garlic added to the pan sizzles at once - a minute or two. Add the garlic and stir gently to separate.
- As the garlic begins to turn golden and release its fragrance, stir gently. Watch carefully because the garlic can burn quickly. When half the garlic has turned golden, remove from the heat and set aside. The garlic will continue to cook in the hot oil once it is removed from the heat.
- Set the pan aside to cool to room temperature.
- Transfer the garlic and oil to a glass jar and store in the refrigerator.
- Note: Do not chop the garlic too finely as this will increase its tendency to burn.

PAN-SEARED ASPARAGUS WITH CRISPY GARLIC
Before asparagus got moved to its own botanical family, Asparagaceae, in the early 2000s, it was part of the lily family along with onions, chives, shallots and garlic. It makes sense then, that asparagus and garlic make such a good duo. When cooked with care, both can be mild and sweet (or pungent and bitter when cooked carelessly). To highlight the best of both ingredients, gently fry garlic into chips for a crispy topping, then use the lightly infused oil to sauté the asparagus. Both thin and chubby spears work, as would nearly any other vegetable you like with garlic: broccoli, kale, snap peas, fennel and more.

Steps:
- Place a paper towel-lined plate next to the stove. In a medium or large skillet, combine the garlic and olive oil over medium-low heat. Cook, shaking the skillet often, until the garlic is very light golden, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat, tilt it, then use a slotted spoon to transfer the garlic to the towel-lined plate, leaving the remaining oil in the skillet. Season the crispy garlic with salt.
- Return the skillet to medium-high heat. Add the asparagus, season with salt and pepper, and cook, shaking often, until bright green, crisp-tender and browned in spots, 4 to 5 minutes. Slide onto a platter, including any oil in the skillet. Top with the garlic chips and season again with salt and pepper.
Tips for Making Crispy Garlic and Garlic Oil:
- Use fresh garlic cloves: Fresh garlic cloves have a stronger flavor and aroma than pre-minced garlic or garlic powder.
- Slice the garlic cloves thinly: This will help them crisp up more easily.
- Use a neutral oil: Olive oil or avocado oil are good choices.
- Heat the oil over medium-low heat: This will prevent the garlic from burning.
- Add the garlic and cook until golden brown: This may take several minutes. Stir the garlic occasionally to prevent it from burning.
- Remove the garlic from the oil and drain on paper towels: This will help remove any excess oil.
- Use the garlic oil for cooking or as a condiment: You can use it to sauté vegetables, make salad dressings, or drizzle over grilled meats or fish.
Conclusion:
Crispy garlic and garlic oil are versatile ingredients that can be used in a variety of dishes. They add a delicious flavor and aroma to any meal. With these tips, you can easily make your own crispy garlic and garlic oil at home. So, next time you're looking for a way to add some extra flavor to your cooking, give this recipe a try!
