1/2 pound shallots (about 5 large)
1/2 teaspoon vegetable oil
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup water
3 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons plum or apricot jam

2 teaspoons minced garlic

1/4 teaspoon dried hot red pepper flakes

Chop enough shallots to measure 1 cup. In a heavy saucepan cook shallots in oil over moderate heat, stirring, until softened, about 3 minutes.

Stir in lime juice and zest. (Glaze may be made 2 days ahead and cooled completely before being chilled, covered.)
