4. Mix the soy sauce, fish sauce, and shrimp paste with a bit of oil in another small bowl.

6. Crack the eggs into the pan and scramble them slightly. Once the eggs are halfway cooked, add the cooked coconut rice and onions. Toss everything together and mix well.
7. Add the dry seasoning, fish sauce, and soy sauce. Toss everything together and mix well for another 2 minutes.
8. Add the pineapple and raisins, along with the cooked shrimp. Let everything sit for about 10-15 seconds to let it brown slightly. Then toss everything together to mix well.
