Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Heat a large nonstick frying pan or wok over high heat and add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. When the oil begins to smoke, add the egg and swirl the pan to form a flat egg pancake. Cook for about 10 seconds (the egg will be half-cooked); remove to a plate.
  2. Add the shrimp to the skillet, sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon salt, and cook, stirring constantly, until cooked through, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a bowl. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, then add the watercress, carrots, green peas, garlic, soy sauce, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring constantly, until the watercress is wilted and the peas are heated through, 2 to 3 minutes.

  3. Add the rice, stirring to break up any clumps, and spread it into an even layer in the pan. Cook until heated through, about 3 minutes. Return the egg, shrimp, and any juices to the pan and cook, stirring and breaking the egg to thoroughly distribute the ingredients, about 1 minute. Season with salt, if needed. Sprinkle with green onions, drizzle with sesame oil, and serve.
