Crispy Chilli Oil
Most chilli oils are just that: oil. A wet, one-dimensional heat that disappears in the first bite. This isn't that.
Our Crispy Chilli Oil is a full-on textural experience. It's about the audible crunch of fried garlic and shallots, the deep aromatic warmth from whole spices, and a savoury foundation that makes everything it touches moreish. Forget what you think you know. This is the upgrade.

Buy Crispy Chilli Oil & Make Boring Meals Extinct
The problem with most condiments is that they're forgettable. They add a single note of heat or sweetness. Our Crispy chilli oil is different. It's built around inclusions, the crunchy, flavour-packed bits that other brands are too lazy to perfect.
This is the clear distinction. You have your thin, wet oils with a few sad flakes floating around. Then you have the Chinese-inspired style, where the oil is just the beginning. It's loaded with aromatics, crispy fried bits, and a texture that transforms the entire dish. That’s us - we pack our jars with those crunchy inclusions and, yes, we’re loud and proud about the MSG. Because flavour isn’t a footnote. It’s the whole point.
The Anatomy of the Crunch
It's not magic, it's a method. We fry our shallots and garlic low and slow until they reach a perfect golden brown, ensuring they stay insanely crunchy, even when drenched in our aromatic oil. It's the texture that changes everything.
Deconstruct the Flavour Bomb
This isn't your average condiment. It’s three layers of awesome in one jar:
- The Crunch: Crispy fried shallots & garlic for that addictive texture. You can get heat from anywhere. You can only get this crunch from us. The "holy f**k" moment comes from the texture. It’s the sound it makes. We meticulously fry our shallots and garlic until perfectly crisp, ensuring every spoonful delivers an addictive, savoury crunch that generic oils simply can't replicate.
- The Aroma: Whole spices infused into 100% Australian Canola Oil.
- The Umami: The deep, savoury foundation that makes everything taste better. (Yeah, it's the MSG, and it's glorious). It’s an ingredient that makes every other component, from the garlic to the shallots, taste deeper, richer, and more satisfying. We’re not hiding it. We’re bragging about it. It’s the secret that’ll have you scraping the bottom of the jar.
Which Papi are you?
Our OG Crispy Chilli Oil: The All-Rounder
This is the legend that started it all. Your daily driver for adding savoury crunch and aromatic depth to everything. We built our Vegan and Gluten-Free OG crispy chilli oil to be the perfect all-rounder, packing a serious hit of savoury garlic, warm spices, and a friendly kick.
For the true addicts, the UmamiPapi Crispy Chilli Oil OG Jumbo size is waiting.
The Extra Spicy Crispy Chilli Oil: The Heat-Seeker's Choice
All the aromatic flavour of the OG, with a satisfying, lingering burn. We cranked the heat with extra chillies and Sichuan peppercorns for a flavourful inferno that delivers a deeply satisfying warmth. This Vegan and Gluten-Free oil isn't just pain in a jar, it's a whole d*mn experience.
Your Crispy Chilli Oil Questions, Answered
What Do I Even Put This On?
Everything, kiddo. If you can eat it, Papi’ll make it 1000x better. This isn't just for dumplings. We're talking a generous drizzle on eggs (even better with our UmamiPapi Chilli Egg Mayo), pizza, pasta, tacos, and fried chicken. Our crispy chilli oil will transform your food in ways you can’t even imagine. Spoon it into noodles, soups, and stir fries for a lightning-fast flavour injection. The chilli flakes and crispy garlic add a texture that's absolutely unbeatable. Or just do what we do and shovel it straight from the jar with a spoon. No judgment here.
How Spicy Is It, Really?
Our OG packs a friendly kick that’s more about stunning aromatic warmth than a 5-alarm inferno. We designed this respectable heat to amplify flavour, not obliterate it, which means you get a guaranteed thrill that's still controlled. Think soaring above the ordinary, not torching the whole house down. Our Extra Spicy unleashes a solid, deeply satisfying burn for those who crave the heat, but we promise it won’t nuke your tastebuds. It's a flavour-packed heat that builds with intensity, not a chemical fire that just scorches everything in its path.
Seriously, What's The Deal With MSG?
It’s the undisputed king of flavour, end of story. This powerhouse delivers the rich, savoury 'fifth taste' called umami, making your food insanely delicious. It’s a naturally occurring ingredient that makes everything in our crispy chilli oil, from the garlic to the shallots, taste deeper and way more satisfying. Think of it as the ultimate hype man for all the other ingredients. We use it because we’re obsessed with maximum flavour, and MSG delivers that every single time.
Is It Actually Vegan And Gluten Free?
You bet. Both our OG and Extra Spicy Crispy Chilli Oils are 100% vegan and certified gluten-free. That means all the explosive flavour you crave and absolutely none of the animal products or gluten you don't.
We're straight up about our ingredients, so it’s worth knowing a couple of others in the Papi family, our Chilli Egg Mayo and Hot Honey aren’t vegan (they’ve got egg and honey, makes sense).
But for the core crispy chilli oils, we've made d*mn sure they're plant-based, because making your food delicious should be for everyone.
