Follow The Directions

01

Step

Remove the basket insert from the air fryer. Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) for 5 minutes.

02

Step

Add oil to the basket holder to coat, then add onion, carrot, and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt. Stir to combine. Cook for 5 minutes.

03

Step

Add eggs; cook until partially set, about 3 minutes.

04

Step

Add shrimp, rice, peas, soy sauce, vinegar, pepper, and remaining salt to the egg mixture. Stir to combine. Cook for 10 minutes.

05

Step

Stir the mixture, sprinkle with sesame seeds (if desired), and cook until heated throughout and crisp, for an additional 10 to 15 minutes.

06

Step

Drizzle with Sriracha mayonnaise and sprinkle with scallions before serving.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider marinating the shrimp in a mixture of soy sauce, ginger, and garlic before cooking.
Adjust the amount of Sriracha mayonnaise according to your spice preference.
Feel free to substitute other vegetables, such as bell peppers or broccoli florets, based on your liking and what you have on hand.

    Be careful not to overcrowd the air fryer basket for even cooking.
