So easy and so good that we ate it before I could get a picture. The original recipe, in Saveur, called for xiangchang sausages, but I used lop chong.

Time 40m

1 cup uncooked rice
3/4 cup medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 tablespoon shaoxing wine (Chinese rice wine) or 1 tablespoon dry sherry

1/4 cup vegetable oil

CHINESE FRIED RICE WITH SHRIMP AND PEAS



Chinese Fried Rice With Shrimp and Peas image

This is a more subdued version of fried rice than the spicier Thai fried rice. It's a great dish to make if you have cooked rice on hand and a great vehicle for whatever vegetables may be in your refrigerator. Feel free to add other cooked vegetables, meat or seafood.

Categories     dinner, easy, quick, one pot, main course, side dish

Time 15m

Yield Serves four to six

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 large eggs
2 tablespoons vegetable or canola oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger
1/2 pound medium shrimp, peeled, deveined and cut in 3/4-inch pieces
1 tablespoon dry sherry
5 to 6 cups cooked and cooled basmati or long-grain rice
1 bunch scallions, thinly sliced, white and green parts separated
1/2 cup cooked fresh or thawed frozen peas
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1/4 cup chopped cilantro

Steps:

  • Beat one of the eggs in a small bowl and salt lightly. Heat 1 teaspoon of the oil over medium-high heat in a small nonstick frying pan, and add the beaten egg. Swirl in the pan until the egg forms an even coat, like a thin pancake. When the egg is cooked through, roll up and slide onto a plate. Cut in thin strips (you can use a scissors or a knife). Set aside.
  • Heat a wok or large, heavy nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until a drop of water evaporates upon contact. Add the remaining oil and swirl around the pan, then add the shrimp and cook about one minute, stirring and tossing with a spatula or wok scoop until just about cooked through and pink. Add the garlic and ginger, and stir-fry for 30 seconds. Add the sherry, and stir everything together. When the sizzling stops, pour in the remaining beaten egg. Stir-fry until scrambled, and add the rice. Cook the rice - scooping it up, then pressing it into the pan and scooping it up again - for about two minutes. Stir in white and lighter green parts of the scallions, the peas and the soy sauce. Stir together for about half a minute, and transfer to a warm serving platter. Sprinkle the egg strips, scallion greens and cilantro over the top. Serve hot.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the quality of your ingredients, the better your fried rice will be. Use fresh, flavorful shrimp and Chinese sausage, and a good quality soy sauce.
  • Cook the rice correctly: The rice should be cooked al dente, so that it doesn't become mushy when it's fried.
  • Use a well-seasoned wok: A well-seasoned wok will help to prevent the rice from sticking and burning.
  • Cook the rice over high heat: This will help to create a nice crispy texture.
  • Add the ingredients in the correct order: The shrimp and Chinese sausage should be added first, followed by the vegetables and then the rice.
  • Don't overcrowd the wok: If you overcrowd the wok, the rice will not cook evenly.
  • Stir-fry the rice constantly: This will help to prevent the rice from sticking and burning.
  • Season the rice to taste: Add soy sauce, salt, and pepper to taste.
  • Serve the rice immediately: Fried rice is best served immediately after it's cooked.

Conclusion:

Chinese sausage and shrimp fried rice is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a quick and easy meal. By following these tips, you can make the best Chinese sausage and shrimp fried rice possible.
