Noodles & Rice · Main ingredient: Rice · ⏱ 7 min · Serves 5 · ~₱85 · Best for: Breakfast

Ingredients

• 4 cup 4 cups cold cooked rice (day-old, refrigerated)
• 0.5 cup 1/2 cup minced garlic (about 2 whole heads)
• 4 tbsp 4 tbsp cooking oil (or reserved pork/bacon fat)
• 3 pinch 1 tsp salt, or to taste
• 0.25 tsp 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
• 2 tbsp 2 tbsp chopped spring onions (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

1. Break up the cold rice with your hands or a fork to separate the grains, ensuring no large clumps remain.
2. Heat oil in a large wok or skillet over medium heat and add the minced garlic.
3. Fry the garlic slowly, stirring constantly, until golden brown and crisp; scoop out about half of the toasted garlic and set aside for garnish, leaving the garlic oil in the pan.
4. Increase heat to medium-high, add the rice to the garlic oil, and stir-fry, breaking up any remaining clumps.
5. Season with salt and pepper, tossing continuously until the rice is heated through and lightly toasted, about 5-7 minutes.
6. Transfer to a serving platter and top with the reserved crispy garlic bits and chopped spring onions.
7. Serve hot alongside eggs, tocino, longganisa, or any Filipino breakfast (silog) dish.
