Dried Shrimps & Bacon Chips Fried Rice

Fried rice can be delicious if you add in stuff like bacon chips and dried shrimps :) My Wildboar loves dried shrimps added to his fried rice and knowing he is meat eater, I added in bacon chips for him too . I threw in some chopped bird's eye chillies for heat and you tell me whether this one dish meal is delish or not!  Sliced some homegrown spring onions and garnished the fried rice with the greens.  The red chillies and green onions gives colors to the fried rice and a feast for my camera :)

This  one dish meal  is often served on our dining table when I am busy with my gardening and baking.  When hubby sees baking in the kitchen , he knows dinner would be fried rice LOL!

fried rice can be so versatile that with just an egg added ,

 your fried rice can taste restaurant standard. I  used dried shrimps 

because hubby requested for it and bacon chips an added bonus for him :)

a one dish meal that is often served when I am busy 

with my baking and gardening :)

best to use rice that is overnight or cooked a few hours before frying
