Ingredients
- 150 grams small shrimp (peeled and deveined)
- 1 teaspoon Shaoxing wine
- 360 grams cooked rice (use leftover rice)
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons XO sauce
- 2 scallions (chopped)
- salt (to taste)
Instructions
- Toss the shrimp with the Shaoxing wine and a pinch of salt to marinate while you prepare the other ingredients.
- Use your hands to crumble the rice, so there are no clumps
- Heat a large frying pan over high heat until hot. Add the oil and the marinated shrimp and spread them out in a single layer. Stir-fry the shrimp until they're cooked through, and then remove them from the pan, leaving behind as much oil as possible.
- Break the egg into the pan and scramble for a few seconds. Add the rice before the egg is fully cooked.
- Toss and stir the egg and rice together until the rice is fluffy (about 1 minute).
- Add the XO sauce and toss together until the rice is uniform in color. Taste the rice and season with salt if needed. Continue tossing and stirring until the rice is very fragrant.
- Return the shrimp to the pan and add the scallions. Toss to distribute everything evenly, and the fried rice is done.
