Arroz frito com alho (5 ingredientes e 10 minutos)

Ingredientes

• 2 cups cooked rice ((day-old, refrigerated))
• 1/8 teaspoon turmeric powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt ((to taste))
• 1 teaspoon soy sauce ((to taste))
• 2 tablespoons cooking oil
• 2 tablespoons chopped garlic
• 1 1/2 tablespoons roughly chopped white parts of scallions
• 1/4 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper ((to taste))

Modo de preparo

1. 1

   In a shallow plate (or mixing bowl), mix rice with turmeric powder, salt, soy sauce and 1/2-1 tablespoon of oil. While doing this, use your fingers to break up the rice.

2. 2

   Place a wok or pan over medium heat and add about 1 tablespoon of oil. Once the oil is hot, add chopped garlic. Stir and cook over gentle heat for a minute until fragrant. Move the garlic around constantly and be careful to not burn the garlic.

3. 3

   Add the chopped white parts of scallions to the pan. Continue to stir and cook for another minute until fragrant and some of the garlic pieces just start to turn golden. Adjust the heat as needed to avoid burning the garlic.

4. 4

   Add rice to the pan and increase the heat to medium-high. Stir and toss constantly for 1-2 minutes until rice is coated with oil, the inside is heated through and the outside is still firm/crisp. Cook for another 30-60 seconds if you want softer rice.

5. 5

   Sprinkle black pepper over rice. Turn off the heat and transfer to serving bowls or plates immediately.
