Filipino Coconut Garlic Fried Rice (Sinangag)

Ingredients

  • jasmine rice (2 cups)
  • water (1.5 cups)
  • coconut cream (0.5 cups)
  • turmeric (2 teaspoons)
  • salt (0.25 teaspoon)
  • coconut oil (3 tablespoons)
  • garlic (0.25 cup)
  • fish sauce (2 tablespoons)

Instructions

  1. Place rice in a large bowl with enough water to cover by a few inches; swirl with your fingers, then drain. Repeat until water runs clear, about 3 times.
  2. Combine rice, 1 1/2 cups water, coconut cream, turmeric, and salt in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, about 20 minutes. Chill, uncovered, 2 to 4 hours or overnight.
  3. Heat coconut oil in a 12-inch skillet or wok over high heat. Add garlic; cook until it just begins to brown, about 1 minute. Add rice and spread in an even layer; cook, without stirring, until lightly browned and crisp on the bottom, about 4 minutes. Add fish sauce; cook, stirring, until fully combined and heated through, about 2 minutes.
