Step three

Heat 1 tablespoon (5 mL) of vegetable oil in a wok over medium-high heat. Add rice and stir fry for 1 minute. Add remaining 1/4 cup (60 mL) Kung Pao sauce, sesame oil, and VH® Soya Sauce. Stir fry for 3 to 4 minutes. Add diced pineapple, shrimp and scallions and stir fry for another 1 to 2 minutes.
