    Wow, this was good. It was actually quite easy to put together as the braise does most of the work. I attempted to fry the shallots but be careful, those go from perfect to burnt especially with carry over cooking. I used store bought fried shallots as an emergency substitute and probably wouldn't know the difference. The major flavor notes are soy and five spice. I would definitely make this again.
