03 Method

Step 1

Stir the stir-fry sauce ingredients together. Set aside. Warm a wok or large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add 2 tbsp. oil plus the garlic and onions. Stir-fry 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until fragrant.
Step 2

Add cooking wine and continue stir-frying another 2 minutes, or until onions begin to soften. Add the shrimp. (If using cooked shrimp, add it later together with the rice). Stir-fry 2 to 3 minutes, or until shrimp have turned pink and plump.
Step 3

Push shrimp to the side of your pan. Add 1 tsp. more oil, then crack eggs into the pan. Quickly fry to scramble, about 1 minute. Keep the wok or frying pan hot for these last few steps. Add the rice, frozen peas and or mixed vegetables, and cashews. Drizzle the stir-fry sauce over.
Step 4

Quickly begin "tossing" the rice in the wok/pan, using 2 utensils and a tossing-like motion (lifting from the bottom of the pan). Continue "stir-frying" in this way 3 to 7 minutes, or until rice and peas/vegetables are hot.
Step 5

Remove from heat and taste-test. For greater flavor, add a little more fish sauce until desired taste is achieved. If it tastes too salty, add a few squeezes of fresh lime or lemon juice.
Step 6

Top with green onion and serve hot straight from the wok/pan. For those who like it extra spicy, add fresh-cut chili. Enjoy!
