About Filipino garlic rice
Sinangag is Filipino garlic fried rice traditionally made from leftover cooked rice. This profile follows a direct version with canola oil, abundant garlic, salt and black pepper.
Toasted garlic gives the rice its defining nutty, savoury aroma, while salt and pepper keep the seasoning simple. Neutral oil carries the garlic flavour without masking the clean taste of the rice.
The rice is pale and loose-grained, flecked throughout with small golden-brown pieces of crisp garlic. Its texture is dry and lightly chewy, with separated grains rather than a soft or saucy finish.
