Sinangag Garlic Fried Rice Recipe


Every night after the end of the day we sometimes have left over rice from the meal from our dinner and the best way to eat it the next day is cooked it as sinangag which is garlic fried rice.

When you have your typical breakfast served in the Philippines for example dried fried fish, tocino, longanisa people love to eat garlic rice to complete their meal along with sunny side up egg and sliced tomato.

Our meal doesn't get complete if we don't have all these ingredients for our breakfast this is the reason why in the Philippines, we are known to be a rice eater no rice to some people is not a complete meal for them.
