Hello everyone! I’m Mingl, your nutritionist friend, and today I’ve made a wonderfully aromatic ‘Garlic Fried Rice’! This dish is particularly fantastic when served alongside shrimp or lobster. Get ready for a burst of flavor!
Main Ingredients
- 193g cooked rice (preferably warm)
- 21g garlic flakes (for a delightful crunch!)
- 16g minced garlic (the heart of the garlic flavor!)
- Pinch of salt (to season)
Optional (For Extra Flavor!)
- Pinch of chopped parsley (adds color and aroma)
- Pinch of chopped parsley (adds color and aroma)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare all the ingredients for your fried rice. Using warm rice will help prevent clumping and ensure a fluffy texture.
Step 2
Heat a frying pan over high heat and add a generous amount of cooking oil. Stir-frying over high heat helps to maximize the flavors of the ingredients.
Step 3
Add the minced garlic to the hot pan. Stir-fry until it’s golden brown and fragrant, being careful not to burn it. Browning the garlic deepens its delicious flavor.
Step 4
Sprinkle in a pinch of salt with the fried garlic and stir briefly to enhance the garlic’s aroma. It’s important to taste and adjust the salt as needed.
Step 5
Add the warm rice to the pan. Gently break up any clumps with your spatula, ensuring the rice is evenly coated with the garlic. Continue to stir-fry until each grain of rice is infused with garlic flavor – this is key!
Step 6
Finally, toss in the crispy garlic flakes and chopped parsley, stirring gently to combine. The garlic flakes will add a wonderful savory crunch with every bite. Your delicious Garlic Fried Rice is now ready!
Step 7
Chef’s Tip! For an exceptionally rich experience, try mixing this fried rice with lobster tomalley (the green paste inside the lobster). The intense seafood flavor combined with the pungent garlic creates a truly unique and unforgettable taste. It’s a match made in heaven, so don’t miss out!
