The chilli oil that goes on everything
Dulcie's 1983 is the multi-award-winning original — a slow-cooked crispy chilli oil built on a 40-year-old family recipe (Gold at both the Melbourne and Sydney Royal Fine Food Awards 2024). Deep-fried shallots and garlic, an assorted blend of dried chillies and warm spice, all suspended in oil. It's the jar that quietly ends up on every plate in the house.
The flavour
It opens savoury and toasty — fried shallot and garlic crackling up front — then a warm, building chilli heat rolls through the middle while fennel, cinnamon and Szechuan pepper hum underneath. It finishes long, savoury and moreish, with just enough tingle to keep you going back for another spoon.
How to cook with it
- Spoon it straight over fried or poached eggs and smashed avo for an instant breakfast upgrade.
- Stir a heaped spoon through noodles, fried rice or ramen right at the end so the crunch survives.
- Drizzle over pizza and pasta the second they hit the table.
- Crown grilled meats, dumplings or roast veg as a finishing oil straight off the BBQ.
- Give the jar a proper stir first to bring the crispy bits up from the bottom.
In the jar
A glossy, golden-red oil with a thick raft of crunchy fried shallot and garlic settled underneath. Give it a good stir before every spoon — the crispy layer lives at the bottom.
