Garlic Fried Rice

Garlic fried rice(sinangag) is a common Filipino fried rice simply flavored with garlic. It is made with leftover rice. This is a perfect way to use day-old rice that may be a little dry or even slightly fermented.

Rice should at least be left overnight and could be up to a couple days old at room temperature. In the Philippines, rice from the night before is commonly made into sinangag for breakfast.

Garlic fried rice is often cooked in oil or some leftover oily sauce. It could even use a little coconut cream.

Garlic fried rice is a popular Filipino breakfast food with daing or or other dry food, egg, or leftovers.
