Technique to learn

Garlic Oil Infusion

Slowly frying garlic in cool oil extracts flavor into the fat, which coats every grain of rice when stir-fried.

Instructions

Step 1: Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large skillet or wok over low heat.
Step 2: Add minced garlic and stir constantly for 3 to 4 minutes until golden brown and fragrant.

Step 3: Scoop out half of toasted garlic chips with a slotted spoon and reserve for topping.

Step 4: Increase heat to medium-high, add cold rice to pot, and break apart clumps with a spatula.

Step 5: Season rice with salt, pepper, and soy sauce, tossing continuously for 6 minutes until heated through and steam rises.

Step 6: In a separate non-stick skillet, heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil over high heat and fry eggs until edges are brown and crispy.

Step 7: Divide fried rice into bowls, top each with a crispy fried egg, and sprinkle with reserved toasted garlic and green onions.

Cooking tips

Using chilled day-old rice prevents the grains from sticking together and turning mushy during stir-frying.
Toast garlic slowly on low heat so it becomes crunchy without scorching or turning bitter.
