Ingredients
- 3 cups leftover white rice (medium grain preferred)
- 6 Pete and Gerry’s Organic Egg yolks (*Footnote 1)
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 1/2 tablespoons peanut oil
- 8 oz. (225 g) Shrimp , peeled and deveined, cut into 1/2” (1 cm) pieces (about 12 shrimp)
- 3 green onions , sliced
- 3 cloves garlic , minced
- 1 cup asparagus , sliced (or frozen mixed vegetables, thawed and drained)
Instructions
- Add the rice to a medium-sized bowl and fluff with your hands to separate the grains. Add the egg yolks. Mix until all the grains of rice are evenly coated with egg yolk.
- Heat 1/2 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet over medium heat until hot. Add the shrimp. Stir and cook until the shrimp turn white, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer the shrimp to a bowl and set aside.
- Pour in the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil to the skillet and swirl to coat well. Add the rice and sprinkle evenly with salt. Stir and cook until the egg yolks are cooked, 5 to 6 minutes.
- Add the garlic and asparagus. Cook and stir until the asparagus is cooked through, 2 minutes or so. Add the green onions and stir everything together.
- Add back the cooked shrimp and stir everything together. Carefully taste the rice. Add more salt to adjust seasoning if needed.
- Transfer everything to a big bowl or plate. Serve hot as a side.
Notes
- Save the egg whites for making egg drop soup or hot and sour soup.
