What is Lao gan ma?

It's a Chinese condiment made with chillis and oil, and often other things like garlic, nuts, black beans. It's spicy and addictive and goes brilliantly on a whole host of foods.

It’s sometimes called “chili crisp”. They have an okay version at Trader Joe’s, but the kind at an Asian market is tastier.
