Carbon is the 15th most abundant element in the Earth's crust, and the fourth most abundant element in the universe by mass after hydrogen, helium, and oxygen. It is present in all forms of carbon-based life, and in the human body carbon is the second most abundant element by mass (about 18.5%) after oxygen.oreover, it has an affinity for bonding with other small atoms, including other carbon atoms, and is capable of forming multiple stable covalent bonds with such atoms. As a result, carbon is known to form almost ten million different compounds; the large majority of all chemical compounds.

150ml double cream (for the shallot purÃ©e) salt and black pepper. Preheat the oven to 180Â°C/160C fan/gas 4. Peel the shallots, first blanching them in boiling water for 30 seconds, if you like, to make them easier to peel. Place a large, nonstick ovenproof pan over a medium-high heat, allowing it to get very hot. Toss the shallots in the sugar and drop them into the pan, then caramelise for 2-3 minutes, stirring from time to time. Remove from the hob, transfer to the oven and bake in the oven for 10-20 minutes depending on size, or until tender, then remove from the oven and place in a serving dish. If making shallot purÃ©e, place the pan back over the heat, pour in the cream and bring to the boil. Remove from the heat, transfer to a blender and pulse until you have a smooth paste. Season to taste with salt and pepper and then serve.
