Japanese Fried Rice

I've featured fried rice recipe I collected from Malaysia, lets feature the Japanese version.

Ingredients
1-2 tbsps vegetable oil
2½ cups rice, cooked and cooled
½ pound tiny shrimp, 90-110 count
2 eggs, beaten
1 large carrot, diced small
1 bunch green onion, sliced
¼ cup soy sauce, or to taste
Salt and pepper to taste

Steps
1.Heat 1-2 tsps vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium high heat until hot.
2.Meanwhile, season beaten eggs with salts and pepper, then add to the pan and cook a thin omelet. Remove the omelet and cut into small square pieces.
3.Using the same wok, add the remaining oil and heat, then fry diced carrots until slightly tender.
4.Add shrimps and cook until pink.
5.Reduce heat to low, then add rice and mix well.
6.Add green onions and cooked eggs, mix gently.
7.While mixing add soy sauce until the color turn slightly brown.
8.Increase heat to high and fry the mixture.
9.Add salt and pepper to taste.

Observation
I noticed that, there were no onion and shallots used at the beginning of cooking this version of Japanese fried rice.Unlike the Malaysians version which normally fry onions and shallots to fragrant before putting in the rest of the ingredients.
