Crispy Shallots and Garlic image

This gently-fried topping takes a little patience, but leaves you with sweet, aromatic, crunchy bits that will elevate salads, sandwiches, pasta or noodles. And the oil you fry it in also takes on terrific flavor - also great for drizzling on most anything you can think of.

Categories     vegetables

Time 1h

Yield 1 1/2 cups fried shallots, plus 2 cups infused oil

Number Of Ingredients 4

8 medium shallots (1/2 pound), sliced 1/8-inch thick on a mandoline
2 cups vegetable oil
12 cloves garlic, sliced like the shallots
Salt

Steps:

  • Add the shallots and oil to a large saucepan. Cook over high heat, stirring occasionally, until the oil bubbles intensely, about 7 minutes; turn heat to medium-low to maintain a spirited simmer. 6 minutes later, add the garlic. Cook, stirring often, and more frequently as it darkens, until the shallots turn from sticky to fluffy and medium golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes later.
  • Strain, keeping the oil, and drain the shallots and garlic in one layer on a paper-towel-lined baking sheet. Season with salt, and let cool until crisp. Fried chips will hold in an airtight container for 3 days, or for 2 months in the refrigerator. The oil, which is great for dressings or drizzling, holds for 2 months in the refrigerator.

I'm not a huge fan of shallots, but I really enjoyed these. They were crispy and flavorful, and they didn't have that strong onion taste that I usually don't like.
