Garlic Rice

To make garlic rice vegan or vegetarian, simply substitute ghee with a plant-based oil like olive oil or coconut oil. This way, you can enjoy the same delicious flavors without using any animal products.

Garlic rice pairs wonderfully with a variety of dishes. Consider serving it alongside stir-fried vegetables, roasted chicken, grilled fish, or even pickles for a tangy contrast. It can also be enjoyed as a standalone dish due to its rich flavor.

Yes, you can store leftover garlic rice! Allow it to cool completely, then transfer it to an airtight container. It can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, simply microwave it or sauté it in a pan with a little oil to bring back its flavor.

If you don't have shallots on hand, you can substitute them with finely chopped onions or green onions. While the flavor will be slightly different, these alternatives will still provide a delicious base for your garlic rice.

To adjust the spice level in garlic rice, you can modify the amount of dried chili used in the recipe. For a milder flavor, use less or omit it entirely. Alternatively, if you prefer a spicier dish, consider adding more dried chilies or a pinch of red pepper flakes.
