Onions can be made into a delicious stir fry without the addition of any veggies.One of the best accompaniment for curd rice.Usually in villages people have raw onions with Pazhaya soru but in my native place Virudhunagar we used to saute these shallots and have with curd rice or pazhaya soru.These are super natural coolant foods especially to be in places like Chennai where most of the months are extremely hot.
During summer I serve these shallots stir fry for breakfast and not for lunch .My family love to have them in the morning along with pickles,papads and mor milagai.But whatever be the side dish nothing can beat the taste of shallots stir fry.
