Ingredients

  • 4 tablespoons peanut oil
  • 1/2 pound medium shrimp, shelled and deveined
  • 2 eggs, beaten with 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 bunch green onions, finely chopped
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon minced ginger
  • 1 small red bell pepper, finely diced
  • 3 cups cold cooked white rice, broken into separate grains
  • 1/2 cup frozen organic peas, thawed
  • 1/4 pound barbecued pork, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
  • Salt

Directions

Heat a wok or large heavy skillet over high heat. Add 2 tablespoons of the peanut oil and swirl to coat the wok. Add the shrimp and stir-fry just until pink, about 2 minutes. Remove shrimp and reserve. Add eggs to wok and scramble until set, but still slightly runny. Remove from pan, breaking into bite-sized pieces, and wipe wok clean.

Return wok to heat, add remaining 2 tablespoons peanut oil, and swirl to coat the wok. Reduce the heat to medium-high, add the onions, garlic, and ginger and stir-fry until onion is half-cooked, 1 minute. Add the red pepper and stir-fry until just tender but still crisp, about 2 minutes. Add the cold rice, quickly spreading it all over the wok and tossing it to heat through, then fry for about 5 to 7 minutes. (Add a little more oil if the rice is sticking.) When the rice is hot, add the peas and toss to heat through, about 1 minute. Add the pork, reserved shrimp, eggs, and salt, and stirfry to heat thoroughly, 1 to 2 minutes. Serve immediately on a large platter.

    Very tasty added oyster sauce and did not use pork and it turned out very good.Also to cut back on your sodium use low sodium soy sauce. I also add green sweet peas and grated carrots .

    I have been making this recipe fr over 12 years. My wife still requests it as it is as close to a comfort food for her as she has. I don't use BBQ pork, I make an "asian" inspired marinade for chicken thighs and cut them in small bites and add them instead.

    First of all, I'm not the best cook in the world. My husband cooks better than I do. I tried out this recipe yesterday and it actually turned out great! My husband is very picky and will tell it like it is and he even liked it! I added soy sauce and skipped out on the pork. Definitely something I'd make again!
