CRISPY FRIED SHALLOTS
Crispy fried shallots are an essential condiment in Vietnam. They turn up in soups and on salads, sprinkled onto dumplings as a garnish, and minced and added to meatballs. Crispy, sweet, and salty, they are indispensible. You may want to make double batches, as people have a hard time resisting the urge to snack on them.

Steps:
- 1. In a small saucepan, heat the oil over medium-high until it registers 275°F on a deep-fry thermometer. Add the shallots and cook, stirring, until light golden brown, about 8 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the shallots to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
- 2. Increase the heat to high and place a fine-mesh sieve over a heatproof bowl. When the oil registers 350°F on the deep-fry thermometer, add the once fried shallots and cook just until they are crispy and well-browned, about 1-2 seconds, watching carefully so the shallots don't burn.
- 3. Immediately pour the oil and shallots through the sieve to stop the cooking, then transfer to shallots to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Reserve the oil for another use. The shallots will keep, stored in an airtight container, for 1 day, but they're best the day they are made.
FRIED SHALLOT OIL (NAAM MAN HOM DAENG)
Steps:
- Set a fine-mesh strainer over a heat proof bowl. Set aside. Pour oil into a shallow pan a half-inch high. Set pan over high heat until oil is lightly bubbling, about 2 minutes. Meanwhile, slice the shallots by peeling, slicing in half, then thinly slicing with the grain into a julienne. When the oil is bubbling, turn heat to low and add the shallots and stir. Don't be tempted to rush the process with high heat: cook, stirring and scraping the sides occasionally and adjusting the heat to maintain a gentle sizzle, 5-10 minutes.
- When the oil stops bubbling and the shallots are starting to brown but still look raw, turn off heat. The residual heat will continue cooking the shallots. Continue stirring and flipping the shallots until they are a deep golden brown and crispy, another 1-2 minutes. Pour shallot oil through the strainer, reserving the flavorful oil. Gently shake the strainer to remove as much oil as possible, then transfer the shallots to paper towels to drain and cool in an even layer. As they cool down, they'll crisp up. Note: Fried shallots can be stored a container, uncovered, at room temperature up to 2 days. Alternatively, store with a silica gel packet (available on Amazon) in an airtight container; shallots will stay fresh several weeks. Shallot oil can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature indefinitely. Makes about ¼ cup fried shallots and ½ cup shallot oil.

Steps:
- Heat oil in a wide, heavy skillet over medium-high heat, and line a plate with paper towels.
- Test oil by tossing in a slice of shallot. When it sizzles, gently add remaining shallots and lower heat to medium. Shallots should bubble gently, not furiously. Stir often. After 5 minutes, if shallots have started to brown, reduce heat. They should slowly turn from translucent to golden to brown; the process should take about 15 minutes.
- Transfer cooked shallots to lined plate with slotted spoon or tongs, shaking off excess oil. Blot with paper towel and let cool at room temperature for 5 to 10 minutes, until crisp.
- Store shallots in an airtight container and use as a crunchy garnish or in salads. Strain oil to remove debris and store in a cool place in an airtight container; can be used for stir-frying or any another purpose.

Steps:
- Cut off both ends of the shallots and remove the skin.

- Now heat some vegetable oil in a medium saucepan or pan.
- Once the oil is heated to medium, place the shallot slices into the hot oil.
- Constant stirring with a pair of chopsticks to separate the shallot rings helps fry them evenly. The endpoint is when the shallot has become golden brown.
- Once the color has turned golden, please remove it from the oil immediately with a slotted spoon.

FRIED SHALLOTS
Frying shallots can be time-consuming and finicky, but there are some steps you can take to improve your odds of success. This recipe, adapted from "The Wok: Recipes and Techniques" by J. Kenji López-Alt (W.W. Norton & Company, 2022), makes sure the shallots are sliced evenly, with a mandoline, for best results. Then, once the shallot rings start to sizzle in earnest, they're fried gently over medium-high heat. What results is crisp and aromatic, and can be used as a finish for salads, pastas and more. The cup and a half that this recipe makes may seem like a lot, but it's not. They'll be sure to go quickly.

Steps:
- Using a mandoline, slice the shallots into 1/16-inch-thick rounds. Line a rimmed baking sheet with 6 layers of paper towels. Set a fine-mesh strainer over a large heatproof bowl or medium saucepan.
- Combine shallots and oil in a medium saucepan or wok. Place over medium-high heat and cook, stirring frequently, until the shallots begin to bubble, 2 to 3 minutes. Continue cooking, stirring constantly as the shallots fry to ensure even cooking, until the shallots turn pale golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes longer. (The shallots will continue cooking for a brief period after draining, so do not allow them to get too dark.) Working quickly, pour the contents of the saucepan into the strainer. Save oil for another use, like stir-frying noodles or fried rice, or for using in marinades, or as the base of homemade chili oil.
- Immediately transfer the shallots to the prepared baking sheet, spread them out into an even layer, and season with salt. Allow the shallots to drain, then carefully lift the top layer of paper towels and roll the shallots onto the second layer, blotting gently with the first. Repeat until the shallots are on the last layer of paper towels and mostly grease-free. Allow the shallots and oil to cool to room temperature, then store separately in airtight containers and refrigerate.
