For best results, use day-old cooked rice. This helps prevent the rice from becoming mushy during the stir-frying process. Adjust the amount of garlic to your preference. If you love garlic, feel free to add more! To add a touch of umami, consider adding a splash of soy sauce or fish sauce towards the end of cooking. This dish pairs well with grilled meats, seafood, or vegetables. If you don’t have ground pork, you can substitute it with small pieces of bacon or diced ham.
