Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare your aromatics. Finely chop the green onion and thinly slice the garlic cloves.
Step 2
If using frozen shrimp, briefly rinse them under hot water to thaw, then wash thoroughly and pat dry. You can use any size of shrimp depending on what you have available.
Step 3
Now, let’s make the scrambled eggs! In a bowl, crack the 3 eggs and add a pinch of salt. Whisk them together until well combined.
Step 4
Heat 2 tablespoons of cooking oil in a pan over medium-low heat. Pour in the whisked egg mixture. Gently stir the eggs with chopsticks, cooking them until about 80% done to create soft, fluffy scrambled eggs. Set aside.
Step 5
Using the same pan (or a clean one), add 4 tablespoons of cooking oil over medium heat. Add the chopped green onions and sliced garlic. Sauté until fragrant, creating a flavorful base.
Step 6
Pat the prepared shrimp dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture. Add the shrimp to the pan with the green onions and garlic. Stir-fry together. Season with a pinch of salt and a dash of black pepper as the shrimp cook.
Step 7
Once the shrimp are mostly cooked, add 3 bowls of cooked rice (about 650g) to the pan. Sprinkle in the chicken powder and oyster sauce for seasoning.
Step 8
Stir-fry everything together until the rice is well combined with the other ingredients. Add the prepared scrambled eggs and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds. Give it one final quick stir.
Step 9
Your simple yet incredibly delicious shrimp fried rice is complete! Enjoy this satisfying one-bowl meal.
