Five Ways With Fried Shallots!


Here are 5 ways to use Fried Shallots. (If you can't find it in Asian market, try my Homemade Fried Shallots Recipe.)

1. Top them with fried rice.
2. Top them with pastas.
3. Top them with grilled steaks or pork chops.
4. Use them as flavoring agents when you cook clear savory soup.
5. Use them in scramble eggs, omelette, or frittata.

They also go well with garlic, cilantro and chives in these five ways. Enjoy!
