Notes
*Leftovers or day-old rice is perfect for this recipe.**Depending on the saltiness of the sauteed shrimp paste you’re using, adjust the amount accordingly.***The garnishes are just suggestions. I don’t always have them all. I make it with whatever I have that I think will go well with the rice.
