Method

  • Wash your rice until the water runs clear and add to rice cooker with water. Cook until ready, fluff, and add the lid back to continue warming for 5 minutes. 

  • Season the shrimp with garlic powder, white pepper, and salt. 

  • In a pan on medium high heat, add the vegetable oil and cook half the garlic and all of the chili flakes until fragrant. 

  • Add the shrimp and cook for 1-2 minutes on each side, until cooked through. Remove. 

  • Add the butter, remaining garlic, and half of the green onions. Cook for 3-4 minutes until very fragrant.

  • Add in the rice and mix well, patting the rice down so there’s a lot of contact with the pan. Cook until bottom is slightly crispy, around 4-5 minutes. 

  • Add the eggs to the middle and scramble then fold into the rice. 

  • Add soy sauce, hoisin, sesame oil, and crabmeat. Mix then top with cooked shrimp and remaining green onions.
