Instructions

Gently loosen the rice grains with a fork. Set aside.
In a small bowl, mix light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar, and white pepper. Set aside.
Heat a wok/skillet over high heat until hot, then pour in oil (see note 3 if using non-stick cookware). Stir in minced garlic and fry until it turns a little golden.
Add the cooked rice. Mix with the garlic then use a spatula to spread it into a thin layer. Leave to fry undisturbed for around 20 seconds. Then flip and toss to heat further (loosen any lumps with the spatula).
Once the rice becomes piping hot, pour the sauce mixture over and toss well to coat the grains evenly.
Stir in chopped scallions before removing the wok/skillet from the heat. Dish out and serve immediately.

Notes

Jasmine rice works best for this recipe. Short-grain white rice would work too (remember not to overcook it before frying).
It’s best to refrigerate the cooked rice overnight. Otherwise, learn to steam rice in a strainer/steamer basket. This method produces an al dente texture that’s perfect for fried rice dishes.
If using a non-stick wok/skillet, make sure to add the oil and then heat it as it’s not advisable to heat it empty.
