Presumably either a terrible idea or already a thing, not sure which.
I’m thinking crispy-fried-aromatics-in-oil, Mediterranean edition. Garlic, eschalots (aka scallions), thyme/rosemary/etc, vast quantity of parsley, peppercorns, lemon zest, fine-diced rye sourdough.
Jar of that in the fridge, use it like chilli crisp but for white-people food.
Is this a thing? Should it be a thing?
A Malaysian restaurant I used to go to always served crispy deep fried parsley as a garnish. It was very good, but I don’t think it would keep well.
