Malacca Fried Rice - A Delicious Leftover Option

This recipe belongs to Malacca, which is the third smallest Malaysian State. It is located in the southern region of the Malay Peninsula, on the Straits of Malacca. It is about 150 kilometer South of Malaysian Capital, Kuala Lumpur.
This fried rice recipe is extremely popular in Malacca because of the ingredients. Its totally different from any other Chinese Fried rice recipes. The special ingredients are roasted pork, shrimp, egg and green peas. This recipe makes a great use of any leftover rice.
I always make this fried rice whenever I have leftover cooked rice, but it has to be long-grain rice. I never add pork in mine, for me eggs and shrimp are enough in one meal. This recipe is a great one-pot meal which definitely will give you comfort and satisfaction.
