Eggs are a complete protein source, providing all the essential amino acids necessary for muscle repair, growth, and overall body function.
The carbohydrates from the rice provide a quick and easily accessible source of energy, making this a great meal to refuel your body.
Garlic is rich in a compound called allicin, known for its potential immune-boosting and anti-inflammatory properties.
One serving of this Garlic Egg Fried Rice contains approximately 430-460 calories, depending on the type of oil and exact portion size. It's a balanced meal with carbohydrates, protein, and fats.
It can be part of a healthy diet. It provides protein from eggs and energy from rice. To make it healthier, you can use brown rice for more fiber, add more vegetables, and use a minimal amount of oil and low-sodium soy sauce.
It's highly recommended to use cold, day-old rice. Fresh rice has a higher moisture content, which makes the fried rice sticky and mushy. If you must use fresh rice, spread it on a baking sheet and let it cool completely, or even chill it in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to dry it out.
A neutral oil with a high smoke point is best for the main stir-frying, such as vegetable, canola, peanut, or avocado oil. Toasted sesame oil has a lower smoke point and is best used as a finishing oil at the end for its aromatic flavor.
To make this vegan, you can replace the eggs with crumbled firm tofu (scrambled with a pinch of turmeric for color) or a plant-based egg substitute. Ensure your soy sauce is vegan.
