Shrimp fried rice – Asian Food Recipes

Recipe ingredients and directions:

4 cups COLD boiled rice

2 eggs

1/2 cup shrimp (or other meat; or combination)

1/4 cup scallions, chopped

2 tbsp soy sauce

1/2 tsp sugar

1/4 tsp msg (optional)

4 Tbsp peanut oil

1/2 cup peas (optional)

1/2 cup chopped carrots (optional)

Beat eggs and scramble them (no milk) in 1 Tbsp oil. Set aside.

In wok or heavy frying pay over a high flame, heat 3 Tbsp oil.

Add scallions and saute. Add rice and stir quickly so that rice

will not stick to the pan and will be well coated with oil. Add

2 Tbsp soy sauce, 1/2 tsp sugar and 1/4 tsp msg. Mix well.

Now add shrimp and eggs, mixing and breaking eggs into little pieces

in the rice. (If you are adding peas and carrots, do so now)

Serve hot.

[NOTE: rice MUST be cold or it will stick together.]
