I made the oil last night. I only had 2 fresh Bhut Jolokias (no dry) and I wanted a very spicy oil. I roasted the peppers until mostly dry and then put them in only 2 cups of oil. It turned out very mild and nothing like I expected after eating a couple fresh peppers. I put the mix in the blender and then back in the oven for another 30 mins. Its a little hotter now, but next time I would probably put 4-5 Bhut Jolkias in the 2 cups. I'm not sure what I did wrong or if I just had unrealistic expectations.
