Oh, a couple things I should add to this. I use avocado oil. High heat friendly and does not suffer color as mentioned in the post I linked.
I add my dry mix, though a bit wet with the soy sauce, into the hot oil on the stovetop. Turn off the gas burner first or slide it onto a cold burner for a electric coil.
99% of on-line recipes have you pouring hot oil into a bowl on the dry/damp spices. Not necessary and dangerous.
