Instructions

Step 1: Heat 3 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over medium heat. Add 6 minced garlic cloves and 1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger, sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant and golden but not burnt.
Step 2: Push the garlic and ginger to one side and pour in 3 beaten large eggs. Scramble gently until just set, about 1 minute.
Step 3: Add 4 cups day-old cooked white rice, breaking up any clumps with a spatula. Stir-fry for 4-5 minutes, mixing eggs, garlic, and ginger evenly through the rice.
Step 4: Stir in 1/2 cup thinly sliced scallions, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon white pepper. Optionally, add 1 tablespoon soy sauce for extra flavor. Continue stirring for another 2 minutes until heated through and aromatic. Serve immediately.
