Enjoy this shrimp fried rice with kimchi and other Korean side dishes. We lost our old rice cooker "Mr. Cuckoo" a few months ago, and because our new one makes exactly four servings, we no longer have leftover rice, which is ideal for making fried rice. Since my futile attempts to fix Mr. Cuckoo have come to an end, the missus now has to make new rice and let it cool for a few hours.

Ingredients

  • olive oil: 3 Tbsp (divided)
  • carrot: 1 piece (diced)
  • green bell pepper: 0.5 piece (diced)

  • oyster sauce: 2 Tbsp (to taste)

  1. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add carrot and bell pepper; cook and stir until slightly softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in shrimp, onion, corn, and garlic; cook and stir until shrimp turn pink and are no longer translucent, 5 more minutes. Pour off any liquid, reduce the heat to low, and let simmer.

  2. Heat remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a separate skillet over medium heat. Pour in beaten eggs and scramble until firm and no longer runny, 2 to 3 minutes. Gently mix scrambled eggs into shrimp and vegetables.

  4. Heat remaining 1 teaspoon butter in a small nonstick skillet over medium heat until melted and no longer foaming. Crack one whole egg into the skillet, cover, and cook until the bottom is slightly browned, the yolk is runny, and the top of the white is slightly firm, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate and repeat with remaining eggs, adding more butter as needed.
