Chili oil sauce for wontons:
Mix spices:
Put the garlic, sugar, chili flakes, sichuan pepper, five spices, and stock powder in a medium mixing bowl.
2

Heat oil:
Heat the chili oil and vegetable oil in a small frying pan over medium heat until hot. Pour over garlic mixture. Enjoy the sizzle! (Don't worry, it doesn't spit)
