• Heat coconut or olive oil in a pan over medium-high heat. This recipe is best made with a high-quality oil. Be careful not to let the oil smoke; turn the heat slightly lower if this happens.
• Add minced garlic and minced candied ginger to the oil.
• Add the cold cooked rice to the pan, slowly, crumbling out any lumps. This fried rice recipe is great to make with leftover rice.
• Continue to fry the rice, adding extra olive oil if needed. Brown the rice without scorching it. Add chopped meat, pieces of chicken or shrimp if desired.
