INGREDIENTS
- 1 Cup Della Basmati Rice
- 1 lb large uncooked fresh shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1 large shallot, peeled and thinly sliced
- 1 stalk of lemongrass, slice into rings and finely minced
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tbsp ginger finely minced
- 1 red Thai chili seeded and cut into julienne
- ½ Tbsp of red chili flakes
- ¼ cup of water
- ⅓ cup of dark brown sugar

Step 1
Prepare Della Jasmine Rice according to the package directions. Chop the shallots, finely mince the lemongrass, garlic, and ginger, and julienne the red Thai chili pepper.
Step 2
Heat oil in a wok or skillet over medium heat. Add the shallots, garlic, and ginger, and sauté for about 2 minutes until the shallots are soft and fragrant. Stir in the chili flakes and minced lemongrass, cooking for another minute until the lemongrass releases its aroma.
Step 3
Pour in water and bring it to a boil. Stir in the brown sugar and fish sauce, mixing well to combine. Let it return to a gentle boil. Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook for about 1 minute. Flip the shrimp and cook for another minute, stirring to ensure the sauce evenly coats them. Adjust the seasoning to taste if needed.
Step 4
Serve the shrimp and sauce over the cooked Della Jasmine Rice. Enjoy!
