Beat the eggs lightly with chopsticks, add a dash of salt, and
mix.* Set aside.
Heat the wok and then add 1 tablespoon oil. When oil is
ready, pour 1/2 of the egg mixture into the wok and cook over medium heat,
turning over once. Cook the other half the same way. Cut the egg into thin
strips, and save for later.
Add 2 tablespoons oil, or as needed. When
oil is hot, stir-fry the onion and shrimp on high heat for a few moments,
remove and set aside. Do the same for the green peas, and then the diced
ham.
Add 1 - 2 tablespoons oil, turn the heat down to medium and stir-fry
the rice. Add a bit of soy and oyster sauce if desired. Add the other
ingredients except the egg and green onion and combine thoroughly. Serve the
fried rice with the strips of egg on top and the green onion as garnish.**

you can mix the green onion and egg in with the other ingredients.
