Fried Shallots

A bowl of crispy fried shallots, fresh green beans, shallots, salt, and cream on a marble countertop.

Great on green bean casserole, mac ‘n cheese or sandwiches and salads!

Ingredients

  • Shallots, peeled and thinly sliced
  • Vegetable or olive oil (enough to cover the shallots)
  • Salt (for seasoning)

Instructions

  1. Peel and thinly slice shallots. Add them to a skillet in a thin layer and cover with vegetable or olive oil.
  2. Simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally while the shallots cook. Fry for about 15 minutes, until evenly browned.
  3. Drain on paper towels and lightly season with salt. Sprinkle as a garnish on everything or just nibble out of the bowl!
