THAI FRIED RICE RECIPE WITH SHRIMP (KHAO PAD GOONG ข้าวผัดกุ้ง)
Thai fried rice with shrimp (khao pad goong ข้าวผัดกุ้ง), is a very typical Thai street food dish, available at all stir fry restaurants. Though you can order the dish with your choice of meat, shrimp is the most popular option. What really makes Thai fried rice unique, is that it's served with a squeeze of lime on top to give it a nice sour tinge, and always accompanied by prik nam pla (พริกน้ำปลา), the Thai condiment of chilies and fish sauce.

Steps:
- If you're using whole fresh shrimp like I did, first pinch off the head, and peel the outer shell of the shrimp, leaving only the tail on (that's Thai style). You can also devein them if you'd like, but for small shrimp, to me it doesn't really matter.
- Peel 2 cloves of garlic, and then just finely mince them
- Slice ¼ of a sweet white onion into medium sized strips
- Finely dice about 3 - 4 green onions
- Take just 1 leaf of Chinese broccoli (kai-lan), slice it in half first along the spine, and then slice it into 1 centimeter sized strips
- Turn on your stove to medium high, heat up your wok (or frying pan), and add about 1 tablespoon of oil
- Once your oil is hot, add the garlic first, and stir fry continuously for about 15 seconds or so, until it gets nice and fragrant
- Next, toss in your shrimp, and fry for about 30 seconds - your shrimp should start to turn pink and feel more firm
- Add in a little less than ½ of your rice first. This is going to soak up all those delicious shrimp juices and oils and keep your rice nice and dry. Stir fry for about 10 more seconds - This is a little known trick to make good rice, so it remains nice and dry
- Scoot all your rice to one side of the pan, and then crack in the egg into the empty side
- Whirl the egg up, let it cook for a few seconds, and then start to mix it up with the rice and shrimp
- Keep stir frying for about 20 seconds until the egg is fully cooked, and then add in the rest of your rice, and give it a quick stir
- Add ½ tablespoon of soy sauce, ½ tablespoon of oyster sauce, just a pinch of sugar (optional), and continue stir frying your rice, making sure all the sauce get mixed in
- Then add your chopped Chinese broccoli and onions, and stir fry for another 30 seconds until the vegetables wilt, but they can still be crisp and not fully cooked
- Lastly, toss in your green onions, stir it a few more seconds, and it's ready
- Immediately dish your fried rice onto a plate
- Slice off a wedge of lime, and serve it on the plate next to the rice
- For the final touch, I like to sprinkle some freshly ground black pepper on top to give some extra flavor
- Add 3 tablespoons of fish sauce to a small bowl
- Slice about 5 Thai chilies (you can add more or less, up to you), and add them to the fish sauce
- Finally, I like it with a little squeeze of about ½ of a lime - but this is optional - and at many Thai restaurants it's only fish sauce and chilies
- That's is, give it a stir, and set it aside
SALT AND PEPPER SHRIMP
This is the classic Cantonese shrimp dish with the heads and peels left on. The shrimp are usually eaten whole, but I know this is scary for some. The recipe is traditional, but you can peel and clean the shrimp if you prefer. I think that when fried, the skins and heads taste like tempura and hold the seasonings perfectly. You can choose your own adventure here, but I do hope you try this dish as it was meant to be eaten.

Steps:
- In a small bowl, combine the salt, bouillon powder, sugar and white pepper and reserve.
- Rinse the shrimp under cold water, then drain them quickly in a colander. Leave them moist to absorb the cornstarch to make a crust.
- Heat the oil in a 6-quart Dutch oven or pot until the oil reaches about 375 degrees F. Add the cornstarch to a large bowl, dredge the shrimp in cornstarch and then shake off the excess. Deep fry the shrimp for 2 to 3 minutes in three small batches. Drain on a sheet pan as you are heating your skillet or wok.
- While the shrimp are cooking, heat a large skillet or wok to high and spoon in 2 tablespoons (30 grams) of oil. When the first wisp of white smoke appears, stir in the garlic, ginger and jalapeno and cook for about 30 seconds until light brown.
- Toss in the fried shrimp, reserved sugar-and-salt mixture and scallions. Continually toss the shrimp to coat well, 1 to 2 minutes. Once the shrimp are heated through, plate the shrimp and top with crispy bits from the pan.
