Method

  1. 1

    Heat 1 tbsp of the oil in a wok over high heat. Add the onion, garlic and chili and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until golden. Add the shrimp and stir-fry for 2 minutes, until pink and opaque.

    Add the cooked rice and peas and toss until everything is very hot. Add the soy sauce and fish sauce, then stir through the chopped cilantro.

    Keep the rice warm while you heat the remaining oil in a skillet over medium heat. Fry the eggs until the whites are set and the edges crisp, about 3 minutes, and season them with salt and pepper.

    Divide the fried rice between 4 bowls and top each with a fried egg. Scatter with the rest of the cilantro and serve with hot sauce, if you like.
