Jump to Recipe
Sinangag or Fried rice (Garlic Fried Rice) is cooked rice (usually a day old or leftover from the night before) that is fried with minced or finely chopped garlic, and seasoned with salt. It is usually served during breakfast but can be eaten or served all day (for breakfast, lunch, or dinner)!
Whenever there is leftover cooked/ steamed rice, heat it up in the microwave or cook/ fry it to make Sinangag/ Fried rice so as not to waste food.
How to cook Sinangag or Fried Rice?
This is a very simple recipe but we should always prepare all the ingredients before cooking any food. For this recipe, you will need four ingredients: salted butter, finely chopped or minced garlic, cooked rice, and garlic powder.
I use salted butter instead of oil as it adds more flavour to the Fried Rice. If there is no butter available, you may substitute it with 2 tablespoons of cooking oil.
Heat a deep frying pan over medium heat and put 2 tablespoons of butter. Once the butter is melted, put the finely chopped or minced garlic on the pan. Add a pinch of salt and saute the garlic until golden brown and fragrant. Add the cooked rice, salt and garlic powder. Stir fry until the rice turned slightly brown. Put the rest of the butter and stir until incorporated. Serve and enjoy!
