Sauteed Garlic Rice

recipe

• Step 1
  Cook the rice. When it’s done, place it to the side.
• Step 2
  During this time, slice the garlic into thin strips.
• Step 3
  In a hot pan, add 1 ½ tbsp of oil per person, add the garlic, and cook it on medium heat until it browns (about 3-4 minutes). Stir it continuously to keep it from burning.
• Step 4
  Once the garlic is nice and golden, take it out of the pan and put it to the side.
• Step 5
  Reuse the pan with the leftover oil and add the grated ginger (or you can use ginger powder if you don’t have fresh ginger) and let it cook for 1 minute.
• Step 6
  Now add the rice and press it down into the pan with a spatula so it can brown a little bit.
• Step 7
  Brown the rice for 2 minutes on medium heat, move it around and press it into the pan again, then cook for 3 minutes longer until it’s lightly golden and slightly crispy. Salt and pepper to taste.
• Step 8
  Serve the rice with the fried garlic on top, and some chopped cilantro and sesame seeds if you have them. Enjoy!
