Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Shrimp

    In a large pan, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the shrimp, season with salt and black pepper, and cook until pink and opaque, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside.

  2. 2

    Scramble the Eggs

    In the same pan, add another tablespoon of vegetable oil. Beat the eggs in a bowl and pour into the pan. Scramble until fully cooked, then remove and set aside with the shrimp.

  3. 3

    Stir-Fry the Rice

    Add more oil if necessary, then stir in the minced garlic and ginger, cooking until fragrant. Add the cooked rice to the pan and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes.

  4. 4

    Combine Ingredients

    Return the shrimp and scrambled eggs to the pan. Add the chopped green onions and soy sauce, mixing everything together. Stir-fry for an additional 2-3 minutes until everything is heated through.
