Description
This garlic butter Sinangag is one of those simple dishes that just hits right. It’s savoury, a little rich, and it makes leftover rice feel like something special.
Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 2 cups day old cold rice
- 5 to 6 cloves garlic, grated
- 2 to 3 tbsp black garlic purée (optional)
- 3 to 4 tbsp butter
- 3 to 4 tbsp garlic oil
- Salt to taste
Instructions
- Heat 3 to 4 tbsp butter and 3 to 4 tbsp garlic oil in a wide pan over medium heat.
- Once the butter starts to foam, add the 5 to 6 cloves of grated garlic and stir gently.
- Keep it moving so it doesn’t burn; you’re aiming for light golden, not dark brown.
- If you’re using it, stir in the 2 to 3 tbsp black garlic purée and let it warm through.
- It adds a deeper, slightly sweet flavour that’s really nice but totally optional.
- Add in the 2 cups of day-old cold rice and toss well to coat it in that buttery garlic mixture.
- Season with salt to taste and give everything a final toss and taste, adding a pinch more salt if needed.
- Serve hot.
