To start off, taking a small bowl, we will mix the soy sauce, oyster sauce and sesame seed oil. Now, heat a wok or large frying pan over a high temperature and add 1 tablespoon of the oil. Put the shrimp in and stir-fry for around 2 minutes. Next, we will remove the shrimp from the wok and set aside for later. After, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil, add the red pepper and stir-fry for a minute. Put in the zucchini and stir-fry for a further 2 minutes. Toss in the peas and garlic and stir-fry for 30 seconds then add the rice and stir-fry for another minute, tossing to separate the rice grains and combine well. Finally, add the sauce mixture and stir-fry for 2 minutes then add the cooked shrimp and toss to mix and heat through. That’s it, serve the delicious shrimp fried rice to your hungry guests. This dish is ideal as a standalone dish or part of a main course.
