Ingredients

• 4 cups Cooked Rice (day-old)
• 6 cloves Garlic
• 2 tbsp Vegetable Oil
• 1/2 tsp Salt

Original measure retained: its cup/spoon or fluid-volume standard is unspecified.

Instructions

1. 1Place a 30.48 cm skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Heat the 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil until it shimmers, about 1 minute.
2. 2Add the 6 cloves of minced garlic to the hot oil. Cook, stirring constantly, for 1 to 2 minutes until the garlic is golden brown and smells fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
3. 3Add the 4 cups of cooked rice (day-old) to the skillet. Use your spoon or spatula to break up any large clumps of rice.
4. 4Stir the rice and garlic together. Continue to cook, stirring constantly, for 5 to 7 minutes, until the rice is heated through and some grains start to look slightly crispy.
5. 5Sprinkle the 1/2 teaspoon of salt over the rice. Stir well to distribute the salt evenly throughout the rice.
6. 6Continue cooking and stirring for another 2 to 3 minutes, until the rice is fully heated and has a slightly toasted aroma. Serve hot.
