Recipe Tips

  • Be sure to use day-old rice, as fresh rice can become mushy when cooked in a stir-fry.
  • Make sure your wok or skillet is very hot before adding the ingredients, as this will help prevent sticking.
  • Don't overcook the shrimp, as they can become tough and rubbery.
  • Feel free to adjust the seasoning to your liking, adding more or less soy sauce, oyster sauce, or sesame oil as desired.
