Categories     main-dish

Time 55m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 24

1 pound medium (21/25 count) shrimp, shells and tails removed, deveined, halved lengthwise, then crosswise
2 tablespoons Ginger-Garlic Paste, recipe follows
2 teaspoons sambal oelek (Asian chile-garlic sauce)
1/2 cup soy sauce
1 teaspoon cornstarch
3 large eggs
1 teaspoon soy sauce
Peanut oil
3 tablespoons peanut oil
1/2 medium yellow onion, diced
1/4 cup finely diced celery
1 tablespoon Ginger-Garlic Paste, recipe follows
2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
4 cups cold cooked white rice
1/2 cup frozen peas, thawed
1/2 cup frozen shelled edamame, thawed
1 cup diced fresh pineapple
1 cup bean sprouts
1/4 cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons sambal oelek
3 scallions, chopped
1/2 cup garlic cloves, peeled
1/2 cup fresh ginger, broken into broken pieces
2 tablespoons canola oil

Steps:

  • For the shrimp: In a large bowl, combine the shrimp with the soy sauce, Ginger-Garlic Paste, sambal and cornstarch. Mix well to coat the shrimp. Cover and refrigerate for 15 minutes.
  • For the egg crepes: In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, soy sauce and 1/4 teaspoon water. Set a medium nonstick skillet over medium-low heat and coat it lightly with peanut oil. Pour in half the egg mixture and swirl the pan so the egg coats the bottom. Cook over low heat until firm, then carefully turn with a spatula and finish cooking on the other side, about 45 seconds per side. Transfer the egg crepe to a plate to cool. Repeat with remaining egg mixture. When the crepes are cool enough to handle, stack, roll and slice them into thin julienne strips. Set aside until ready to use.
  • For the fried rice: Set a large wok or large nonstick skillet over high heat and swirl in 1 tablespoon of the peanut oil. Add the marinated shrimp and stir fry until slightly pink, about 2 minutes. Transfer the shrimp to a plate and set aside. Reduce the heat to medium and add the remaining 2 tablespoons peanut oil. Add the onions, celery and Ginger-Garlic Paste and stir fry until softened and fragrant, about 3 minutes. Add the sesame oil and the rice and stir fry until hot and a little crispy, about 2 minutes, breaking up the rice with a wooden spoon as you go. Fold in the peas, edamame, pineapple and bean sprouts and continue to stir fry until the vegetables heated through, about 2 minutes more. Stir in the soy sauce and sambal. Fold in the cooked shrimp and the sliced egg crepe. Transfer to a serving platter and garnish with chopped scallions.
  • Pulse the garlic and ginger in a food processor. With the processor running, stream in the canola oil and process to a paste. (You'll need 3 tablespoons of the paste for the above recipe. Refrigerate remaining paste for up to a week.)

Fried Jasmine Rice with Pineapple, Shrimp, and Pork image

The addition of pork and shrimp make this pineapple fried rice a main-course dish.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Pork Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 tablespoons Asian fish sauce
2 fresh hot red chiles, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon vegetable or peanut oil
1 1/2 tablespoons finely chopped garlic
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh ginger
2 ounces boneless pork shoulder, thinly sliced
1/4 pound small shrimp, peeled and deveined (halved if large)
1 1/2 cups cooked jasmine rice
1/4 cup diced cooked Chinese roast pork, substitute 1 ounce baked ham
1/4 cup chopped fresh pineapple
1/4 cup sliced snow peas
1/4 cup thinly sliced scallions, plus 2 whole scallions for garnish (about 4 scallions total)
5 sprigs fresh cilantro, for serving
5 sprigs fresh mint, for serving
1/2 cup fresh bean sprouts, for serving
1 lime, cut into wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • Stir 2 tablespoons fish sauce with chiles in a small bowl; set chile sauce aside.
  • Heat a wok over high heat. Add oil. Add garlic and ginger; cook, stirring, 5 seconds (be careful not to burn them). Add pork shoulder; cook, stirring, until no longer pink, 45 to 60 seconds. Add shrimp; cook, stirring, 1 minute. Add rice; cook, stirring, until heated through, about 1 minute. Add remaining tablespoon fish sauce; cook, stirring, 30 seconds.
  • Stir in roast pork or ham, pineapple, snow peas, and sliced scallions; cook until heated through, about 30 seconds. Serve with cilantro, mint, bean sprouts, lime, whole scallions, and chile sauce.

Tips:

  • Use day-old rice: Day-old rice is less moist and will fry up better, resulting in a more flavorful and fluffy fried rice.
  • Cook the shrimp properly: Shrimp should be cooked until they are opaque and pink, but not overcooked, or they will become tough.
  • Use a well-seasoned wok: A well-seasoned wok will help to prevent the rice from sticking and will also add flavor to the dish.
  • Add the ingredients in the correct order: The order in which you add the ingredients is important. Start with the aromatics (garlic, ginger, and onion), then add the shrimp, vegetables, and rice. Finally, add the eggs and soy sauce.
  • Don't overcrowd the wok: If you overcrowd the wok, the rice will not cook evenly and will become mushy.
  • Serve immediately: Fried rice is best served immediately after it is cooked, while it is still hot and fluffy.

Conclusion:

Shrimp and pineapple fried rice is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal. With its combination of sweet, savory, and tangy flavors, this dish is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give shrimp and pineapple fried rice a try!
