Heat the vegetable oil in a frying pan over a medium heat. Add the salty garlic and cook, stirring, for 4-5 minutes until lightly golden. Do not let the garlic burn else your salsa will taste bitter. Transfer the garlic oil to a glass bowl.
Heat the olive oil in a frying pan over a low heat. Add the dried chillies and cook, stirring, for 3 minutes, or until the arbol chillies have darkened in colour.
Remove from the heat, set aside to cool slightly, then add the chillies to the garlic oil. Set the mixture aside to cool to room temperature.
Transfer the chilli mixture to a blender and process until smooth. Add a little more olive oil if you prefer a runnier consistency.
Store the salsa in an airtight container in the pantry for up to 6 months.
