Doesn’t sound good? It sure was. This recipe was shared with me from my friend and chef Eliane from Born To Taste.
We made it while I was staying with her this summer and I fell in love with it. I do love shallots to start with, but the balsamic vinegar with the sugar creates such a hearty caramel rich in flavor that you are in for a real treat.
I served it alongside Pomme de Terre Fondantes, but any potatoes of your choice will be excellent. Soak up the juice from the shallots. Roasted baby carrots are a good compliment as well alongside.
