Cooking Steps

Rinse and cook rice
1
  • Before starting, add 1 1/4 cups (2 1/2 cups) water to a medium pot. Cover and bring to a boil over high. 
  • Wash and dry all produce.
  • Using a strainer, rinse rice until water runs clear.
  • To the boiling water, stir in rice, half the vegetarian oyster sauce and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter. Reduce heat to low. Cover and cook for 13-15 min, until rice is tender and water is absorbed.
  • Remove from heat. Set aside, still covered.
Prep
2
  • While the rice cooks, peel, then mince or grate ginger.
  • Thinly slice green onions.
  • Cut bok choy into 1-inch pieces. (TIP: Rinse bok choy leaves to wash away any hidden dirt!)
  • Using a strainer, drain and rinse shrimp, then pat dry with paper towels. Season with pepper.
Cook veggies
3
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
  • When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then snow peas, bok choy and carrots. Cook for 2-3 min, stirring often, until veggies are tender-crisp.
  • Add remaining oyster sauce. Stir to coat. Transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm.
Cook shrimp
4
  • Reheat the same pan over medium-high.
  • When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then shrimp and ginger. Cook for 1-2 min, stirring often, until shrimp start to turn pink.
  • Add brown sugar, fish sauce and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter. Cook for 2-3 min, stirring often, until shrimp are lightly glazed and cooked through.**
Finish and serve
5
  • Fluff rice with fork, then stir in half the crispy shallots.
  • Divide rice between bowls.
  • Top with veggies, then shrimp.
  • Spoon any remaining sauce from the pan over top.
  • Sprinkle green onions and remaining crispy shallots over top.
