MeiMei Chili Oil, 250 ml

MeiMei Chili Oil is an authentic Chinese chili oil inspired by the flavours of Sichuan and Chongqing. Made with rapeseed oil, chili flakes, sesame seeds, and natural spices, it is crafted to bring depth, texture, and aroma to your cooking, with a refined heat that builds slowly and elegantly.

This is not just “an oil with a kick”.
It is a layer of flavour that elevates the entire dish.

Why choose MeiMei Chili Oil?

• Authentic Sichuan-inspired character: Inspired by the flavours of Chongqing’s mist-covered mountains and Sichuan’s vibrant street kitchens, where chili oil is not a condiment, but the very heart of the food.
• Balanced heat and rich aromatic depth: Moderately spicy, with a focus on aroma, complexity, and umami. The heat is present, but never overpowering. Here, aroma takes centre stage - the kick is only part of the experience.
• Versatile and boundary-free: A natural bridge in the kitchen. Just as perfect with dumplings and noodles as it is with pizza, grilled dishes, and yes - even fries.

How to use chili oil

• The classic way: Drizzle over noodles, fried rice, salads, or any dish for instant depth and authenticity.
• Fusion: Believe it or not - magical on freshly baked pizza, grilled halloumi, morning fried eggs, or crispy fries.
• As a dip: Mix with a little light soy sauce, sugar, and MeiMei Black Bean Magic for an intense, balanced dipping sauce for dumplings.
• In cooking: Add a spoonful to marinades, stir-fries, or sauces for extra colour, aroma, and depth of flavour.

The story behind: it all began in Grandpa’s kitchen

First came the sound, the sizzle of chili as it met hot oil. Then the aroma, filling my grandfather’s kitchen and making mouths water.

MeiMei Chili Oil was born from this heritage. Inspired by generations of knowledge from my grandfather’s hometown of Chongqing, where chili oil is the pulse that brings food to life. Deep, intense, and irresistible.

We have taken this tradition and refined the recipe in Sweden. The result is a chili oil that respects its origins, yet is created to become a natural part of the modern European kitchen, a flavour journey, all the way to your home.
