1 cup cooked shrimps, chopped
1 cup fresh pineapple, pat dry with paper towel and cut into small cubes
1/2 carrot, cut into small cubes

5 cloves garlic, sliced thinly
1 tbsp ginger powder
2 cups cold cooked rice
2 tbsp light soy sauce
1 teaspoon curry powder
Sugar and salt to taste
1 small cans sweet pea

2. Add garlic and onions and stir fry for 30 seconds
3. Add carrot, pineapple, and shrimp. Stir fry for about 1 minute
4. Add rice. soy sauce, curry powder, salt, sugar, and stir until everything is well combined
