Sandra: Below are my answers:
1) This is to avoid the residue heat in the oil from darkening the fried shallots.
2) Add salt during frying.

hi.. i’ve got two questions to ask:

1: why do u drain the shallots if u are going to pour the oil back in with it later?

2: if adding the salt, do i add it to the oil when frying or when storing the oil and shallots after cooking?

I fried my sliced shallot or chopped garlic in M’wave ! Add oil to cover shallot or garlic in a bowl that can stand heat !! Must keep an eye on it and stir once or twice and once it is slightly brown, remove it and stir once more and drain it after 30 seconds. Since it is very easy to fry them in M’wave, so I did not make a lot, just 3-4 shallots or garlic each time. It will take around 2 mins depends on how much ingredients and oil I used.
