Benihana Fried Rice
- 3 c rice, cooked (try to use day-old rice!)
- 200g shrimp (optional)
- 2 eggs, lightly beaten
- 2 spring onions, sliced thinly
- 1 small carrot, sliced thinly
- 1 (pink) onion, finely chopped
- 2 Tbsp sesame
- 3 Tbsp sesame oil
- some garlic butter
- olive oil
- soy sauce
- salt, pepper, garlic powder

(1) In a large saute pan, heat olive oil and sesame oil together on medium heat. Mix to incorporate. When the pan is hot, add in the shrimp until fully cooked. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside for later.
(2) Add olive oil and garlic butter (and garlic) to pan and saute carrots and onion (not green onion) together until onion is translucent, about 2min. Set aside.
(3) Add a little bit of olive oil to pan. Beat eggs with pepper and soy sauce, add to pan. Cook, scramble, and chop eggs into pieces.
(4) Put the rice on top of the eggs, and stir to incorporate. Add veggies and shrimp, mix together.
(5) Add sesame seeds, then add soy sauce and stir to incorporate until you see that all the rice is a light brown. Cook until you hear the rice slightly crackle, then serve hot. Enjoy!
