INSTRUCTIONS

Only when you have all the ingredients prepared and ready to go should you start cooking. 2. Heat the cooking oil in a wok over medium-high heat. Add the garlic first, stirring for 30 seconds.

Now for the flavourings: add fish sauce, soy sauce, to the rice. If it’s not quite salty enough for you or if you know you won’t be eating it with added hot sauce, now is the time to add salt to taste. Stir-fry to combine.4.
