- In a saucepan, bring 400 ml (1 ¾ cups) water to a boil. Add the rice, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 25-30 minutes, until the water is absorbed, and the rice is tender. Remove from heat, let rest covered for 5-10 minutes, then fluff with a fork.
- In a frying pan, heat the sesame oil over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and cook until crispy and golden, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the pan, add cayenne powder and salt, and toss to coat.
- To the shrimp, add the cayenne powder, and salt, and mix
