Thai Fried Rice with Shrimp

We start by chopping everything. Spread the cooked rice on a baking sheet to separate the grains and let it cool.

Wash the shrimp. Season with pepper, drizzle with olive oil, and add 1 crushed garlic clove and 1 chili pepper to taste. Heat a tablespoon of oil in a large pan or wok and briefly sauté the shrimp. It takes 2–3 minutes until they turn pink and firm. Remove them from the pan and set aside.

Add another tablespoon of oil and scramble the eggs in the pan over medium heat. Stir until soft scrambled eggs form. Set them aside with the shrimp.
