ONIONS & SHALLOTS
ONIONS
SHALLOTS
India is one of the world's leading producers and exporters of onions, celebrated globally for its unique, highly pungent flavour profile and rich sulphur content. Unlike European or Americas-grown alternatives, Indian red onions deliver an intense, sharp taste that serves as a cornerstone for curry bases, spice blends, and food dehydration industries globally.
RED ONIONS
Commonly known as Sambar onions, Podisu onions, or Small onions, Indian shallots are highly sought after globally for their compact size, multi-clove structure, and distinctive pungent-yet-sweet aroma. Unlike regular bulb onions, Indian shallots feature tightly bound cloves wrapped in a shiny, deep reddish-brown papery skin. They serve as a foundational flavour base in authentic Southeast Asian, Middle Eastern, and South Asian cuisines.
Major global importers include Malaysia, Sri Lanka, the UAE, and Singapore.
