Nasi Goreng (Indonesian Fried Rice)

2 eggs
4 Tbs (60 ml) peanut (or other mild flavored) oil
1 onion, peeled and chopped
1 clove garlic, peeled and chopped
4 oz (100 g) pork, chicken or beef, finely chopped
4 cups (1 L) cold cooked rice
1 Tbs (15 ml) Hoisin sauce
4 oz (100 g) cooked small shrimp, shelled
8 oz (225 g) peas, defrosted if frozen
2 scallions, chopped in ½-inch (1 cm) pieces
1 Tbs (15 ml) hot sauce (optional)

Beat the eggs and heat half the oil in an omelet pan. Pour the
eggs in and allow to set into a pancake-type omelet. Turn out,
slice into 1-inch (2.5 cm) ribbons and set aside. In the same pan,
put the rest of the oil and fry the onion and garlic for 3 minutes.
Add the meat and cook for 3 minutes, then add the rice and stir
until well heated. Season with the Hoisin sauce. Add the shrimp,
scallions, and peas with the hot sauce, if used, and allow to heat
through. Serve garnished with strips of omelet. Serves 4 to 6.
