Garlic Rice With Fried Egg Recipes

GARLIC RICE WITH FRIED EGG

Steps:

• Prepare sticky rice by soaking the rice and water in a medium saucepan for at least 30 minutes and up to 4 hours. Stir in the salt, then place on the stovetop over high heat. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to medium-low and partially cover the pot with a lid set at a slight angle to vent some of the steam. Simmer without stirring for 10-15 minutes until all of the liquid has been absorbed. Remove from heat and cover securely with the lid to steam the rice for another 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, add the oil and garlic to a small skillet, then place over medium heat. Cook, stirring frequently, just until the garlic begins to turn a light golden brown, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat immediately and transfer the garlic to a plate lined with paper towel using a slotted spoon.
• Fry the eggs sunny-side up by melting butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the pan, then immediately reduce the heat to medium-low. Cover with a tight-fitting lid and cook for 2 1/2 to 3 minutes, just until the whites are set but the yolk is still runny and has not clouded over. Season with salt and pepper.
• Pile 1 cup of sticky rice on each plate, then sprinkle with the crispy fried garlic, chopped cilantro, and green onions. Drizzle with soy glaze, then top each mound of rice with a sunny-side up egg. Serve immediately. The yolks will combine with the soy glaze to create a sort of sauce for the rice when you break up the egg with a spoon.

FRIED EGGS WITH GARLICKY GREEN RICE

Steps:

• Cook rice with 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt according to package instructions. Set aside, covered, to steam.
• Meanwhile, heat the oil over medium in your largest skillet or griddle until glistening. Crack in the eggs and cook until golden-brown around the edges, about 2 minutes. Cover loosely using a lid or aluminum foil and cook until the whites are just set and the yolks are still runny but starting to set. (They'll break and mingle with the rice in a beautiful way.) Season with salt and pepper.
• While the eggs cook, fluff the cooked rice with a fork, then stir in the kale, cilantro and parsley. Add the garlic and jalapeño a little at a time and taste, adding more salt, garlic or jalapeño to your liking.
• Spoon rice into shallow bowls and top with the fried eggs, radishes, cheese and lime wedges. Serve with your hot sauce of choice.

GARLIC AND EGG FRIED RICE

Steps:

• Beat eggs and fish sauce together, heat a wok and drizzle with sesame oil. Add the eggs and turn over the cooked egg-the raw stuff will flood to the outside. Keep cooking until you basically have an omellete shape of just cooked egg. Remove from the wok and set aside.
• Heat wok to hot, and add the tablespoon of sesame and the tablespoon of vegetable oil.Add the garlic and cook sir frying until opaque-don't burn it. Add the rice and toss over a high heat for a few minutes, then add the egg omlette breaking it up gently as you toss it through the rice. When the whole lot is hot, add the oyster sauce, toss through and serve.

TURKEY SILOG (GARLIC FRIED RICE WITH EGGS)

Steps:

• Make the garlic fried rice: Heat a large nonstick pan (preferably 10 inches) over a medium-low flame, then add 6 tablespoons of the oil and garlic cloves. Season the cloves with a pinch of salt. Cook, turning the cloves occasionally, until they are brown and soft, 12 to 14 minutes.
• Remove half the oil and half the garlic cloves from the pan and set aside in a small heat-proof bowl. Using a rubber spatula or the back of a wooden spoon, smash the remaining garlic in the pan to an almost rough paste. Before the smashed garlic turns golden, crank up the heat, add half the rice and spread to cover the surface of the pan. It will pop and sizzle - that's good. Let sit for 30 seconds, then toss and mix the rice in the pan. Spread the rice out, then let sit again for another 30 seconds. Adjust the salt and transfer to a large plate. Lightly cover the plate with foil.
• Wipe out the pan, add the reserved garlic cloves and their oil and repeat with remaining rice.
• If using turkey and gravy, warm the gravy in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until it's hot.
• Meanwhile, reheat the turkey (or ham): Wipe out the pan, return it to medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of oil. When the oil starts to smoke slightly, gently lay the meat in pan and sear until golden brown on both sides, about 2 minutes per side. (You may need to do this in batches, adding oil as needed.) Transfer to a plate and season with salt to taste. Cover with foil and wipe out the pan.
• Return the pan to medium-low heat and add 1 tablespoon of oil. Break eggs into pan and cook just until egg whites are fully set but the yolks are still runny. Season with salt to taste.
• To serve, place a few scoops of garlic fried rice on each plate. Layer seared turkey or ham slices on top of the rice. If you're using turkey, sauce the meat with a few spoonfuls of gravy. Top each serving with a fried egg.
