Description

Garlic fried rice, or “Ninniku Chahan” in Japanese, is a popular dish in Japanese cuisine. This flavorful fried rice is made with garlic, eggs, soy sauce, and a few other ingredients. It can be eaten as a meal on its own or served as a side dish to complement your favorite Japanese dishes.

Prep Time

The prep time for this dish is roughly 10-15 minutes, depending on how quickly you can chop the ingredients.

Cook Time

The cook time for this dish is about 10-15 minutes.

Ingredients

  • 4 cups cooked Japanese short-grain rice
  • 4-5 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp oyster sauce
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1 green onion, chopped

Equipment

  • Large non-stick skillet or wok
  • Wooden spoon or spatula
  • Cutting board
  • Sharp knife
  • Bowl for beaten eggs

Method

  1. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
  2. Once the oil is hot, add the minced garlic and stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds to 1 minute.
  3. Add beaten eggs to the skillet and scramble until they are cooked through.
  4. Add cooked rice to the skillet and stir to combine with the garlic and eggs.
  5. Add soy sauce, oyster sauce, salt, and black pepper to the skillet and stir until the rice is evenly coated.

Notes

  • Make sure to use cooked, chilled rice for this recipe. Freshly cooked rice will be too moist and won't fry properly.
  • You can add additional vegetables or proteins to this dish, such as carrots, peas, shrimp, or chicken.
  • Adjust the amount of garlic to your liking - you can use more or less depending on your preference.

Recipe Tips

  • Use a non-stick skillet or wok to prevent the rice from sticking.
  • Make sure to break up any clumps of rice before adding it to the skillet.

  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
