Instructions
Whisk the eggs with a pinch of salt in a small bowl.
Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the eggs and cook, without stirring, until almost set, about 1 minute. Flip the egg pancake with a rubber spatula and cook until just set on the other side, about 30 seconds.
Transfer to a cutting board and cut into thin strips.
Combine the soy sauce, sesame oil and 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl and set aside.
Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in the same skillet over high heat.
Add the shrimp and ginger and stir-fry until almost cooked through, about 2 minutes.
Add the snow peas, carrots and scallions and continue to stir-fry until crisp-tender, about 1 minute.
Add the rice and soy sauce mixture and stir-fry until warmed through. Stir in the egg strips and divide among bowls.

Fried Rice can be paired with Wine, Alcoholic Drink, and White Wine. The best wine for Asian food depends on the cuisine and dish - of course - but these acidic whites pair with a number of traditional meals, spicy or not. The Momo Sauvignon Blanc with a 4.7 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 15 dollars per bottle.
Momo Sauvignon Blanc
Displays a complex nose with aromas of tropical fruit, herbaceous notes and a hint of cassis. The natural fermentation adds a rich and textural quality to the palate, with subtle notes of lemon zest and passion fruit. The finish is crisp and dry. Delicious with all types of seafood and summer salads, or enjoy by itself as a refreshing aperitif.
