Sinangag

Sinangag or fried rice  (or garlic fried rice)is one simple dish prepared and eaten by ordinary Filipinos usually during breakfast. It is made from left-over rice or bahaw. Planning to have sinangag the next morning, the mother often adds a cup or two of rice to cook at dinner time.

SINANGAG

Simplest Sinangag

The ingredients for sinangag consist of:

1. Left-over rice/cooked rice – 2 cups
2. Garlic, 3-4 gloves, minced
3. Salt to taste
4. Cooking oil, 3 tablespoon

Procedure:

1. Wet hands with water and slightly mash the rice to separate them.
2. Heat the oil in the pan and put the garlic until lightly brown.
3. Put the rice in the pan and stir constantly.
4. Put salt to taste.
5. Continue stirring the mixture until all the rice is coated with oil and the rice is slightly dry.
6. Remove from heat and serve.

Sinangag Varieties

There are many varietes of sinangag depending on the additional ingredients added to the simplest sinangag. Some of which are:

1. Scrambled Egg Sinangag

         Just beat one egg and fried separately. Cut the cooked eggs into small pieces add to the sinangag and combine. Similarly, you can just break one egg on top of the sinangag while cooking and stir continuously.

2. Vegetable Sinangag

         Add frozen vegetables, consisting of corn, carrots and green peas, during cooking.

3. Meaty Sinangag

         Add small pieces of cooked chicken, pork or beef on the sinangag while cooking.

Instead of salt, you can substitute it with fish sauce or soy sauce. Others put cooked bagoong alamang (salted small shrimps) on their sinangag.

Partners for your Sinangag

Depending on your preference or budget, sinangag can be eaten in itself or with partners. Some of these are:

1. Fried egg = your sinangag becomes SILOG  (SInangag at itLOG)  (fried rice & egg)

SILOG

2. Fried egg & Longganiza (Filipino sausage) = LONGSILOG (LONGganiza, SInangag at itLOG)

LONGSILOG

3. Tapa (dried meat) & Fried Egg = TAPSILOG (TAPa, SInangag, at itLOG)

TAPSILOG

4. Tocino (cured sweetened meat) & Fried Egg = TOSILOG (TOcino, SInangag at itLOG)

TOSILOG

With so many varieties to choose from, sinangag is still best eaten with tuyo or dried fish. Because tuyo is very salty, vinegar with garlic or chopped tomatoes is the best combination.
