Preparation
  1. Make the fried garlic

    4 min

    Fry the chopped garlic in oil until golden and crispy, then remove and reserve.

    Watch carefully to avoid burning the garlic.

  2. Cook the eggs

    2 min

    Cook the eggs like an omelette, then break them into small pieces.

    Soft eggs blend better into the rice.

  3. Cook the rice

    4 min

    Cold rice gives the best fried rice texture.

    Add the garlic at the end to keep it crispy.

  5. Serve
