Defrost the shrimps and peas
Rinse and boil the sushi rice with twice as much water (3 cups) until it is completely absorbed and leave it covered off the heat.
Add the large shrimps to boiling water and boil for 3-4 minutes. Remove from the heat and remove them from the water with a slotted spoon and keep them aside in a bowl.
Bring the water back to a boil. Heat the large shrimps for just 1 minute and keep them aside with the others.
Boil the frozen vegetables in boiling water for 3-4 minutes, drain and set aside.
Finely chop the onion and garlic separately.
Beat the two eggs in a bowl until they become a homogeneous mixture and add salt and pepper.
In a large pan, add some olive oil and sauté the onion for 2 minutes. Add the garlic and fry for another 2 minutes, lowering the heat a little so that it doesn’t burn.
Once the onion has caramelized and turned yellow, add the boiled rice and stir for 2 minutes over medium heat.
Add the shrimp and vegetables and stir for another 1 minute.
Add the egg in a circular motion so that it goes over as much of the rice surface as possible. Turn up the heat a little and stir slowly but constantly, scraping the egg off the bottom to prevent it from sticking, until you see it turn yellow.
Continue stirring for a total of 7-8 minutes in the same way so that the egg is cooked well and turn off the heat. Our fried rice with shrimps is ready!
