Note:

Frying hot pepper releases noxious fumes which can burn your eyes and make you cough and sneeze so be careful. I actually had to take the photograph quickly and run out of the kitchen but I still ended up with watery eyes and had an uncontrollable sneeze! (*sniff, sniff, Achoo!*) lol!

Add the shrimp and stir fry for 1 minute.

Add about 1/4 cup of ketchup, soy sauce and a little water…

Then add the onion, chive, sweet pepper and carrots

Add 1/4 cup ketchup and 1/4 cup water. Stir

Cover and simmer for 2 minutes
