marinating my shellfish and meats.

Step
Two
Add
about two tbsp of oil to non-stick wok or large frying pan. Allow wok to get almost smoking hot. Then add eggs, just a little garlic, onions
and cilantro and soft fry eggs. Remove
eggs from wok and set aside.
Step
Three
Add
a little more oil to pan as required.
Then add shrimp in batches so your pan will not cool down and will give
your shrimp a nice sear. "DO NOT OVER COOK SHRIMP" as soon as they
are pink in color and look like the letter "C" remove them and put in
a dish and set aside. Repeat this step until all shrimp are cooked.
Step
Four
Add
oil as need, then add rice to hot wok, fried eggs, mix veggies, lime zest,
balance of onions and garlic and chili peppers.
Stir fry until all ingredients, the season to taste with soy sauce and
fish sauce, the add lime juice.
Step
Five
Add
shrimp back and toss lightly, then add balance of cilantro. Place in serving
dish and serve with fresh limes and cucumbers slices.
