Main Ingredients- 10 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
- 2 Tbsp cooking oil
- 200g cooked rice, preferably warm
- 1 Tbsp oyster sauce
- 10g butter
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Begin by preparing the garlic. Peel 10 cloves of garlic and slice them thinly into ‘chips’ or slivers. Slicing the garlic this way will help it release its aroma and become wonderfully fragrant and slightly crispy when sautéed.
Step 2
Heat a frying pan or wok over medium heat and add 2 tablespoons of cooking oil. Once the oil is shimmering, add all the sliced garlic. Sauté the garlic, stirring frequently, until it turns a beautiful golden brown and becomes aromatic. Be careful not to burn the garlic, as this can make it bitter.
Step 3
As soon as the garlic is fragrant, add 200g of cooked rice (warm rice is best as it separates easily) and 1 tablespoon of oyster sauce to the pan. Stir-fry vigorously, breaking up any clumps of rice, ensuring that the oyster sauce evenly coats every grain. Continue to stir-fry until the rice is heated through.
Step 4
Finally, add 10g of butter to the pan. Continue to stir-fry, allowing the butter to melt and coat the rice. The butter will add a rich, creamy flavor and a beautiful sheen to the fried rice. Once everything is well combined and heated through, your delicious Butter Garlic Fried Rice is ready to serve!
