      6    Shallots; thinly sliced

  Pomelo looks like a thick-skinned, oversized grapefruit, and it is
  sweeter than the normal grapefruit.
  
  PEEL AND SEPARATE pomelo segments. Remove and discard membranes.
  Gently flake the flesh. If using grapefruit, drain excess juice.
  Chill. In large bowl, combine pomelo and shredded chicken. Mix
  together the chopped red chili with fish sauce, sugar and lime juice;
  toss with chicken mixture. Arrange on a bed of lettuce, garnish with
  coriander leaves, peanuts, and 2 teaspoons of the Crisp Fried Shallot
  Flakes.
  
  CRISP FRIED SHALLOT FLAKES: Slice shallots into thin slices. Be sure
  they are all the same thinness to ensure even cooking. Heat a pan
  with the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add shallots and fry slowly
  until browned and crisp, about 5 to 10 minutes. The moisture in the
  shallots should be completely cooked out. Drain on paper towel.
  Stored in an air-tight container, the shallots will keep several
  weeks.
