   Fried scallions can usually be found jarred in your local asian market. Fried onions in a can make a good sub. If you are inclined to fry your own shallots or onions go for it. You could also sub in something else crunchy, like shredded raw carrot, chopped peanuts or toasted sesame seeds. Or omit it, it'll be good without too.
