Рецепт Rice with Junk (Shrimp and Edamame)
After reading Neil Peart’s book entitled Masked Rider: Cycling in West Africa where he soaks in the nuances of African life and along the way coins the phrase “rice with junk,” I don’t seem to be able to eat any time of rice topped with seafood or veg (or both) without calling it “rice with junk”. Maybe Rice With Junk should be a new category?
Nevertheless, rice with junk is always delicious, quick and easy.
This rice with junk is made with gulf shrimp, edamame (frozen, I confess), yellow onion, sliced and sauted gently in less than 1 T sesame oil.
