SINANGAG (GARLIC FRIED RICE)

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat until the oil begins to shimmer. Line a plate with paper towels and set it nearby.
• Carefully pour the garlic into the hot oil and stir continuously until the garlic is just beginning to lightly brown. Remove the pan from the heat and use a slotted spoon to transfer the fried garlic onto the paper towel-lined plate; reserve the oil. Set both the garlic and the oil aside while you make the rice. (You can store the garlic chips and oil in separate airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to a week.)
• Fluff the hot rice with a fork and toss it with 1/4 cup (60 ml) of the garlic oil and 1/2 cup (40 g) of the fried garlic chips. (You will have leftover oil and chips for more rice; or try them on the pansits and soups.)
• Season the rice with salt and serve right away or at room temperature, with the eggs, if desired.

GARLIC FRIED RICE

Steps:

• Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a small glass dish in the microwave. Add the minced garlic and lemon juice to the melted butter and stir to combine. Set aside to allow the flavors to mingle.
• This dish comes together so fast that EVERYTHING needs to be chopped, measured, and ready to add. Chop the onions and scallions then measure out the peas/carrots, ham, rice, and soy sauce. Finally, you should beat the eggs in a small bowl.
• In a large, non-stick skillet, melt the remaining 4 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the onions and sauté until soft - about 4 to 5 minutes. Add the peas and carrots and cook about 3 minutes then add the diced ham or chicken. Cook 1 minute. Push all of the contents of the skillet to one side to keep them from cooking too much. On the empty side of the skillet, add the beaten eggs. Season with a little salt and pepper and scramble until just set. Integrate the eggs with the veggies and move everything back to the edge of the skillet. Quickly add the garlic mixture to the pan and use a spatula to break it up. Cook it about 1 minute or so (longer if you do not want an intense, in-your-face garlic bite). If you are worried about the strong flavor of garlic, you can add the same amount of garlic but add it with the peas and carrots. This will give the garlic ample time to mellow and sweeten by the name everything is cooked.
• Add the cold, cooked rice and mix it in with the other ingredients. Add the soy sauce and stir to combine. Stir it every 30 seconds for about 2 minutes. Add the scallions and stir. Taste for seasoning and add salt, pepper, and/or additional soy sauce, if desired. Stir one last time and transfer everything to a serving bowl.

FILIPINO GARLIC FRIED RICE (SINANGAG)

• Prepare brown rice: in a large saucepan, cook 2 minced garlic cloves in vegetable oil until golden; add rice and saute until aromatic, then add broth.
• Bring to a boil then reduce heat and cover; simmer on low heat for 45 minutes or until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed.
• While rice is cooking, shred the yellow squash; drain baby corn; slice green onions; scramble eggs in 1 tablespoon vegetable oil and set aside; and steam pea pods and chopped bell pepper together for 1 minute (plunge them into cold water when done steaming to stop cooking and keep them crisp).
• In a large skillet over medium heat, heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil and cook cubed marinated duck with the marinade and green onions for 10 minutes.
• Add cooked rice and raise heat a bit; cook, stirring constantly until marinade is thickened, about 10 more minutes.

GARLIC PORK CAULIFLOWER FRIED RICE RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Remove all leaves and cut the cauliflower into small florets.
• Place the florets in a food processor and blend until they are a rice-like texture. Be careful not to over process or it may turn mushy. Set aside, and drain excess moisture with a towel, if desired.
• In a large saucepan over medium-high heat, cook the pork until no pink is showing, then add the garlic, onions, salt, pepper, soy sauce, and honey, stirring until the sauce has started to brown.
• Stir until most of the liquid has reduced, then add the cauliflower rice. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until the pork is incorporated evenly into the cauliflower.
• Spread the rice towards the edge of the pan, creating a well in the center.
• Pour the beaten eggs into the well, stirring only the eggs until they are cooked.
• Fold the eggs into the rice, then mix in the green onions
• Enjoy!

BACON GARLIC FRIED RICE

Steps:

• Slice the bacon slices cross ways into small slivers. This works well if you keep your bacon frozen. Thaw enough to slice and then just slice off your pieces of bacon across so you have a bunch of thin strips. Fry the slivers of bacon in a large wok or pan and then remove the bacon to drain on a paper towel. Reserve some of the bacon fat, about 2-4 tbsp, or use vegetable oil, or use a mixture.
• Lightly fry the garlic in the bacon fat/oil in the same pan you fried the bacon. Don't let the garlic get brown. Add the cold rice and the peas and carrots and let it all warm at high temperature and break up the big pieces of rice. It's ok for there to be some clumps of rice remaining. It is important your rice is cold when you start or the fried rice will get gluey and mushy. Day old rice is best, but if you want to make your rice fresh and then fry it, cook the rice and put in a flat baking pan in the freezer to cool for 30-60 minutes first.
• After about 5 minutes, or once the rice is heated through make a well in the center of your rice. Add your eggs and stir them slightly. I like to cook the egg most of the way through in the well, and then slowly bring in the remaining rice which gives some eggy chunks as well as a light coating of egg on some of the rice. Another option is to lightly fry the scrambled egg separately first and then add it to the fried rice.
• The last step is to add the soy sauce, crumble bacon pieces over, mix, taste and add salt if desired.
• This fried rice is surprisingly simple, but really awesome. I always use the frozen peas/carrots, but other veggies can work. Never use canned veggies, and ones that release water (like tomatoes, mushrooms, zucchini, squash) can be tricky, because your rice can get mushy. Fresh carrots, broccoli, snap peas, bell pepper, frozen/fresh corn have been tried and all work.

SINANGAG - FILIPINO GARLIC FRIED RICE

Steps:

• Heat 2 teaspoons of butter or oil in a medium skillet over moderate heat. Beat the eggs with a dash of salt and pepper and pour them into the pan and cook until the center is set. Turn the omelet out onto a plate and set aside. When it is cool enough to handle, cut it into strips about 1/4 inch wide x 2 or 3 inches long.
• Using the same pan or a separate wok, if you prefer, heat a tablespoon of oil over moderate heat and add the minced garlic. Fry the garlic, stirring constantly to prevent it from burning. When the garlic is crispy and golden, remove it from the pan (leaving the garlicky oil in the pan) and set aside.
• Add 2 more tablespoons of oil to the pan or wok and stir in the rice. Make sure all the rice is coated with oil and then spread it across the pan in an even layer. Cook for a couple of minutes, then stir and repeat this process until the rice is heated through and starting to brown. If you like crispy bits, you can continue to fry it longer.
• Stir 1 teaspoon of soy sauce into the rice, taste, and add more if needed. Remove from heat.
• Serve the rice garnished with egg strips, scallions, and a little fried garlic. Place the remaining garlic in a bowl on the side so individuals can add more if they like.

GARLIC PEPPER FRIED RICE W/ BEEF OR CHICKEN

Steps:

• STEP 1.
• In a hot wok, add the first tablespoon of oil and scramble the eggs, chopping them into bite size or smaller pieces while they cook.
• When the eggs are cooked, remove them and set them aside in a clean dish.
• Remove any bits of egg from the wok before moving on to the next step.
• STEP 2.
• In the same wok, quickly combine the second tablespoon of oil, garlic, crushed red pepper and meat, in that order. **If you wait long enough that you can smell the garlic warming before you add the other ingredients, you will burn your garlic. If you hesitate any at all to add the meat after adding the red pepper, it will burn and your lungs will feel like they are closing on you. DO NOT ASK HOW I KNOW! **
• When the meat is cooked, remove it and set it aside in a clean dish.
• STEP 3.
• Still in the same wok, add the last tablespoon of oil and onion.
• Once the onion begins to become translucent add the peas and carrots.
• After the peas and carrots look as if they have thawed, add the cooked rice and drizzle the soy sauce in three or four portions over the rice. After adding each portion of the soy sauce, toss to coat the rice with soy sauce. More than flavor, we're looking to color the rice evenly. More or less than ¼ cup of soy sauce may be necessary. I like a nice, even, golden brown color. That color seems to flavor the rice best. (If you like a darker fried rice, a few drops of dark soy sauce will go a long way for adding the desired color, but it adds no flavor.).
• Once the rice has the right color, add the eggs from step 1 and the meat, garlic, red pepper mix from step 2, and combine all thoroughly. Stir constantly until rice is evenly heated.
• Serve in bowls with extra soy sauce available to season to taste.

TURKEY SILOG (GARLIC FRIED RICE WITH EGGS)

Steps:

• Make the garlic fried rice: Heat a large nonstick pan (preferably 10 inches) over a medium-low flame, then add 6 tablespoons of the oil and garlic cloves. Season the cloves with a pinch of salt. Cook, turning the cloves occasionally, until they are brown and soft, 12 to 14 minutes.
• Remove half the oil and half the garlic cloves from the pan and set aside in a small heat-proof bowl. Using a rubber spatula or the back of a wooden spoon, smash the remaining garlic in the pan to an almost rough paste. Before the smashed garlic turns golden, crank up the heat, add half the rice and spread to cover the surface of the pan. It will pop and sizzle - that's good. Let sit for 30 seconds, then toss and mix the rice in the pan. Spread the rice out, then let sit again for another 30 seconds. Adjust the salt and transfer to a large plate. Lightly cover the plate with foil.
• Wipe out the pan, add the reserved garlic cloves and their oil and repeat with remaining rice.
• If using turkey and gravy, warm the gravy in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until it's hot.
• Meanwhile, reheat the turkey (or ham): Wipe out the pan, return it to medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of oil. When the oil starts to smoke slightly, gently lay the meat in pan and sear until golden brown on both sides, about 2 minutes per side. (You may need to do this in batches, adding oil as needed.) Transfer to a plate and season with salt to taste. Cover with foil and wipe out the pan.
• Return the pan to medium-low heat and add 1 tablespoon of oil. Break eggs into pan and cook just until egg whites are fully set but the yolks are still runny. Season with salt to taste.
• To serve, place a few scoops of garlic fried rice on each plate. Layer seared turkey or ham slices on top of the rice. If you're using turkey, sauce the meat with a few spoonfuls of gravy. Top each serving with a fried egg.
