Ingredients

1/2 lbs Shrimp peeled,tail off and chopped
1 Egg
1 tbsp Cooking Oil neutral, no flavor or taste
3 Cups Rice or rice of choice
2 tbsp Onion chopped
1 tbsp Carrots diced, optional
1 tbsp Green Peas optional
1 tbsp Corn Kernel optional
1 tbsp Soy Sauce
1/4 tsp Salt
1/8 tsp Black Pepper
1/2 Stalk Green Onion

Instructions

Gather all the ingredients.
Chop the shrimp, green onions, onions, and carrots.
In a frying pan, heat 1/2 tsp of cooking oil over medium heat. Once heated, pour in the beaten eggs and scramble them for about 15-30 seconds, leaving them slightly runny. Set the eggs aside.
Clean the frying pan, then add another 1/2 tsp of cooking oil. Heat over medium heat and cook the chopped shrimp for 60-90 seconds until they turn pink. Set the shrimp aside.
In a large skillet or wok, heat 2 tsp of cooking oil over high heat. Add the chopped onions, carrots, and dried rice. Season with salt and black pepper, then break up the rice with a spatula. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the rice is tender.
Return the cooked shrimp, corn kernels, green peas, and partially cooked eggs to the skillet. Add soy sauce and cook for another 1-2 minutes, ensuring the eggs are fully cooked and everything is combined. Serve the fried rice on a plate and garnish with chopped green onions.
