Ingredients

Servings:2
  • 3 cups Day-old cooked jasmine rice
  • 3 pieces Large eggs (yolks separated)
  • 6 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
  • 3 tablespoons Vegetable oil
  • 1 tablespoon Light soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Toasted sesame oil
  • 2 stalks Green onions, sliced
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon White pepper
  • 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter(optional)

Instructions

  1. 1

    Place the cold, day-old rice in a bowl and break up any large clumps with your hands.

  2. 2

    Whisk the 3 egg yolks and pour them over the rice, stirring until every grain is evenly coated and yellow.

  3. 3

    In a cold wok or large skillet, add the vegetable oil and minced garlic. Turn heat to medium-low.

  4. 4

    Fry the garlic slowly until it becomes golden brown and crispy, then remove half of the garlic and set aside for garnish.

  5. 5

    Increase heat to high and add the egg-coated rice to the remaining garlic oil in the wok.

  6. 6

    Stir-fry constantly for 3-5 minutes until the egg dries around the rice and the grains begin to 'dance' or jump in the pan.

  7. 7

    Season with soy sauce, salt, white pepper, and the optional butter; toss well to incorporate.

  8. 8

    Fold in the green onions and sesame oil, then serve immediately topped with the reserved crispy garlic.
