Main Ingredients- 1 cup frozen shrimp (thawed and patted dry)
- 1/4 onion (thinly sliced)
- 1/2 green onion (chopped)
- 2 eggs
- 2 servings warm cooked rice
Seasoning- 2 Tbsp soy sauce
- 2 Tbsp water
- 2 Tbsp mirin (or sake)
- Pinch of black pepper
- 2 Tbsp soy sauce
- 2 Tbsp water
- 2 Tbsp mirin (or sake)
- Pinch of black pepper
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare your vegetables. Finely chop the green onion into rounds and thinly slice the onion. Having your ingredients prepped beforehand will make the cooking process much smoother.
Step 2
Next, let’s make the soft scrambled eggs. Crack the two eggs into a bowl and whisk them well. You don’t need to add salt at this stage. Lightly oil a heated pan, pour in the whisked eggs, and stir gently with chopsticks or a spatula as they cook to create fluffy scrambled eggs. Avoid overcooking to maintain a tender texture.
Step 3
Now it’s time to stir-fry the shrimp and vegetables. Add a little cooking oil to a preheated pan, and add the sliced onions. Stir-fry over medium heat until the onions become translucent. It’s important to sauté the onions thoroughly to bring out their natural sweetness.
Step 4
Once the onions are sufficiently sautéed, add the thawed and drained frozen shrimp to the pan and stir-fry together. As the shrimp turn pink, add all the seasoning ingredients: 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, 2 tablespoons of water, 2 tablespoons of mirin, and a pinch of black pepper. Stir well to ensure the shrimp and onions are evenly coated with the sauce. The soy sauce-based teriyaki sauce will form the core of the flavor.
Step 5
Finally, add the chopped green onions and stir-fry quickly over high heat to finish. The refreshing aroma of the green onions will enhance the dish’s flavor. Be careful not to overcook, as this can make the green onions lose their crispness.
Step 6
All the components are ready! Place a generous portion of warm rice in a bowl. Artfully arrange the scrambled eggs and the stir-fried shrimp and onion mixture on top of the rice. Your delicious Shrimp and Egg Rice Bowl is now complete! It’s best enjoyed immediately while warm.
