Korean Saewoo Bokkeumbap (Shrimp Fried Rice)
Enjoy this shrimp fried rice with kimchi and other Korean side dishes. We lost our old rice cooker "Mr. Cuckoo" a few months ago, and because our new one makes exactly four servings, we no longer have leftover rice, which is ideal for making fried rice. Since my futile attempts to fix Mr. Cuckoo have come to an end, the missus now has to make new rice and let it cool for a few hours.
