Seedy chili oil from In the Kusina: My Seasonal Filipino Cooking (page 56) by Woldy Reyes

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Can substitute red pepper flakes for hathei chili powder.

    This was quite good. I did not have the recommended chiles so I used a combination of chiles (very hot red pepper flakes and gochugaru) from my pantry which yielded a layered Chile flavor, even if not traditionally filipino. The fried shallots added a lovely sweetness, and of course there is crunch from the seeds. Note that this made slightly less than 4 cups, not the 5 1/2 cups stated in my copy of the book, which is consistent with the ingredient quantities.

    This was great - good textures from the seeds, and good amount of heat, for me!
