This is the “lazy man’s pesto.” I started fixing this when I wanted a simple herbed oil to use as pizza sauce. Makes enough for 1 large pizza.

Spicy Olive Oil Recipe
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Handful fresh minced herbs — basil, cilantro, oregano, or 1 teaspoon dried herbs of your choice
1 clove garlic, minced
Pinch sea salt
1/4 teaspoon dried red chile flakes, optional
Place all ingredients in small bowl and muddle together. Let stand for 30 minutes, or use immediately. This doesn’t keep well, so just make enough to use right away.
