Add Most of the Dry Ingredients and Soy Sauce to a Large Pot

• Add the following to a large pot.

Fry All Vegetables Individually

• Heat 2 cups of a neutral cooking oil to 300 - 325F.
• The reason for frying them individually is because they'll brown at different speeds and we don't want to burn them.
• So fry the shallots, then remove from oil and then the garlic, ginger, and scallions.
  2 whole shallots, 4 cloves garlic, 1 nub ginger, 4 whole scallions
