A delightful twist on classic fried rice, featuring crispy bacon and aromatic garlic for a flavorful dish.
Slice the smoked bacon into thin strips.
Freezing the bacon slightly makes it easier to slice thinly.
Heat a wok over medium heat and cook the bacon until crispy. Remove and set aside.
Reserve some bacon fat for added flavor in the next steps.
In the same wok, sauté the minced garlic in the bacon fat until fragrant.
Avoid browning the garlic to prevent bitterness.
Add the cooked rice to the wok and stir-fry to combine with the garlic.
Break up any clumps of rice for even cooking.
Push the rice to the sides of the wok, creating a well in the center. Crack the eggs into the well and scramble them lightly.
Cook the eggs partially before mixing with the rice for a varied texture.
Mix the scrambled eggs into the rice and add the soy sauce. Stir well.
Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed.
Sprinkle the chopped green onions and crispy bacon over the rice. Mix gently.
Add the green onions at the end to retain their fresh flavor.
Serve the fried rice hot and enjoy.
Garnish with additional green onions or a drizzle of soy sauce for presentation.
