Being an avid rice eater (yeah! Can't help it!), I cannot help myself from this constant searching for rice recipes. I have like a zillion (ok..I am exaggerating but well my husband does think so looking at the clutter my "recipe book shelves" hold) recipes for rice. But well, I am a foodie after all. At the last count, I think I can come up with different rice recipes for 3 whole months. A different rice for each day of the month that spans various cuisines (seems to me every country loves its rice!). In the coming months in Chef In You, don't be surprised if you find rice appearing often. Unlike my posting patterns before, with limited time now, I am forced to take photos of whatever I make and well, I make rice often :)

This is a simple recipe with ingredients that are "blink-you-will-miss" in number. Yes, its an epitome of purity keeping consistent with only one aim in mind - Garlic. This is a breakfast staple in the Philippines supposedly served along with meat and fried eggs. Its especially made with left over rice. I added a slight touch to it by way of roasting few whole garlic cloves first and then adding it as a garnish to the rice. Well, what can I say - we love garlic And yes, rest assured we use Listerine as well! ;)
