Often found alongside onions and garlic in the grocery store, shallots are an indispensable ingredient to any pantry, lending a nuanced, soft, and fresh flavor to everything from dressings, to stocks. Shallot has a long history in Onion Land. Shallots are great for perking up green beans: for a reliably tasty side, quick-pickle shallots and Shallot-Red Wine Purée. Chef David Bouley slowly oven-roasts unpeeled shallots for this purée.

Steps to make Ham, Shallot & Mushroom Frittata:
  1. Pre-heat the oven to Gas Mark 4 or electric equivalent (Circotherm 160C)
  2. Boil the potatoes until almost cooked, drain, slice fairly thickly and set aside.
  3. Use a very little of the butter to grease a deepish baking dish.
  4. Bring the butter to a medium-high heat in a frying pan and cook the shallots for 2 minutes, stirring only to avoid sticking. Then add the garlic, chili and peppers and cook for a further 2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the mushrooms and cook for another 3 minutes or until the shallots are cooked but not burnt, gently stirring occasionally.
  5. In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs and milk, then season and add the contents of the frying pan and mix together. Add the ham and cheese and gently but thoroughly mix it all.
  6. Lay the potato slices evenly to cover the base of the baking dish and pour over the egg mix all over, ensuring an even spread.
  7. Cook in the pre-heated oven for 40-45 minutes and serve piping hot onto warmed plates. A small side salad is a pleasant bonus.

The shallot is in the onion family, and is typically a botanical variety or cultivar group of the species Allium cepa. This was formerly classified as a separate species, A. ascalonicum. Shallots have a taste that is somewhere between garlic and onion. It's possible that you may find that stores either don't stock shallots, or they might cost more than you want to. Sweeter and milder than onions, shallots add plenty of flavour to savoury dishes.
