Step 1

Cut off both ends of the shallots and remove the skin.

Step 2

Cut the shallots crosswise in rings, either with a mandoline or a sharp knife.

Step 3

Now heat some vegetable oil in a medium saucepan or pan.

Step 4

Once the oil is heated to medium, place the shallot slices into the hot oil.

Step 5

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.

Step 6

Once the color has turned golden, please remove it from the oil immediately with a slotted spoon.
