How to Make Shrimp Fried Rice

A fulfilling dish, this dish can be served both as lunch and dinner. You can use leftover rice and any vegetables stored in your refrigerator for this. The result will be mouth-watering shrimp fried rice.

Ingredients:

  • Eight ounces raw shrimp, shelled and de-veined
  • Four cups rice, grains separated
  • Two tablespoons cooking oil, kept separately
  • Two stalks green onion, minced
  • ¾ cup peas
  • ¾ cup carrots
  • Three eggs, beaten
  • ½ teaspoon cornstarch
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • One teaspoon sesame oil
  • One tablespoon soy sauce
  • Black pepper, grounded

Instructions:

  1. In a mixing bowl, toss the shrimp along with salt, black pepper, and cornstarch. Make sure these ingredients mix well. Let this mixture marinate for about 10 minutes. Meanwhile, place a wok on high heat. When the wok becomes hot, pour cooking oil inside it. Move the wok around to ensure its surface gets evenly coated with oil.
  2. Add shrimp to the wok. Let it fry for about 30 seconds. After 30 seconds, turn the shrimp over to the other side and let it fry for another 30 seconds. Once both sides of the shrimp have been cooked evenly, remove the shrimp from the wok.
  3. Reduce the heat to medium and allow it to become hot again. Break the three eggs inside the wok and stir the yolks to make scrambled eggs. When the eggs get cooked, remove them from the pan and place them on the same plate as that of the cooked shrimp.
  4. Wipe the wok clean with paper towels. Make sure no trace of cooking oil remains around its surface. Place the wok on high heat again and add one tablespoon of cooking oil to it. Again, move the wok around so that the oil spreads on the wok’s entire surface. When the oil heats up, add green onions to it.
  5. Fry the onions for about 15 seconds. Now add the rice to it, stir the contents well so that the green onions and the rice get mixed up well. Spread the rice grains on the surface of the wok, and let it fry. Do not stir while it gets cooked. This will take about 2 minutes. After two minutes, stir the rice grains with a spatula.
  6. Add some soy sauce to the rice and stir well. Add the peas and carrots to the mixture. Then add the cooked shrimp and scrambled eggs to the wok along with one teaspoon of sesame oil. Mix thoroughly.
  7. You can now serve your shrimp fried rice.
