How to Make JAPANESE GARLIC FRIED RICE (Recipe) ガーリックライスの作り方 (レシピ)

[@justonecookbook]

We made our video slightly differently. We included a POLL in our latest video, so click on "i" (information) button on right top corner, and let us know what you think. And thanks to a JOC reader's feedback, we started to film intro and outro at different locations around the JOC kitchen studio. We love getting your feedback and test something new. Please keep them coming. Thank you for your ongoing support with our work! xo

Just One Cookbook why don’t you eat the shrimp tails?!

[@justonecookbook]

It’s not crispy enough cooked this way but I would eat it if deep fried etc. 😊

[@Syrephine]

Just One Cookbook Looks so awesome and yummy. I would love to make this but I can’t touch shrimp

[@feichen563]

What you did to that third garlic...was simply art

[@dsvillalva]

What I love about your videos is that they show how simple it is to make delicious Japanese food. At first I was intimidated but I’ve made a couple of your recipes and they come out great! I’ll be sure to try out this recipe as well. Thank you!

[@tkyusko]

A fantastic basic easy recipe that can easily be expanded upon.I would love to see you cook a full traditional Japanese breakfast or dinner.

[@juliepierce1225]

Love the new format! New angles and depths - lovely to see all of you Nami instead of just hands! As always, this looks delicious. No doubt it is. Just One Cookbook has always been my go-to Japanese cooking site. Have consistently made and kept a jar of your mentsuyu recipe, in my fridge for years. Thank you team Just One Cookbook! PS. Please don't ever remove your children's chorus of 'itadakimasu' ❤️

[@justonecookbook]

Thank you for your sweet words. Their voice was recorded over 3 years ago and it makes us feel very nostalgic. 😊 I’m so happy to hear you enjoy the mentsuyu recipe! Thank you for your kind feedback!

[@Kinshi1]

I actually really like the medium-ish shots when you were adding the ingredients that didn't have a measure. The into and outro were also very lovely.

[@el2857]

I’m so hungry now!!! That sizzle sound when you’re frying the rice is music to my ears.

[@DLM7576]

YUM! When I was a child my favourite restaurant used to serve garlic fried rice with a stir fried chicken. Tonight I’m going to make it for my family! Thank you, Nami!

[@justonecookbook]

Hope you and your family enjoy! Thank you!

[@juliepierce1225]

Sorry - I forgot to add that I've always enjoyed the background music you use - enjoy the fact that you bother to change it so frequently and think it walks perfectly the fine line of not being too distracting but still pleasant and a little catchy. Thank you again!

[@justonecookbook]

Really good to know. We often change around to see reactions of viewers but we also want to make it pleasant and enjoyable for everyone too. 😊

[@ashleighlogan21]

We currently live in Okinawa,Japan. Garlic rice is my favorite. Can’t wait to try this tonight !

[@justonecookbook]

I hope you enjoy(ed) it! I miss Okinawa and food... We'll share our Okinawa travel guide after our current Kyushu series on the blog. I'll attempt to make Okinawan recipes to share here. :D

[@pameladipzinski5752]

This looks so good...I think this will go with my fish for dinner tonight.😋

[@purplesmurf13152]

Lived in Japan for 8 years and Arashis Garlic fried rice was one of my family's favorites. Tried a few different recipes but none really hit the mark. I used this video and added 1 egg and some spam and I was in heaven.

[@Shokupan982]

Beautiful video! I love this style! I really need to make your garlic fried rice. It brings back great memories of my mother's incredible fried rice, which I used to request all the time as a kid. Thanks as always, Nami-san!

[@justonecookbook]

Thank you Yoshiko san!

[@Ramyapad19]

Your kitchen is so much better than my super old kitchen I am making this and kabocha gratin soon love your videos I have your recipes in my chrome and I bookmarked your recipes love your videos Thanks Ramya

[@justonecookbook]

Thank you! Hope you enjoy both recipes. I LOVE kabocha gratin!

[@mandiecucinotta7983]

Filipino garlic fried rice (sinangag) is very similar, our family recipe almost the same except no soy sauce or parsley. Yum yum!

[@jessiekimura8763]

Mandie Cucinotta No butter either.

[@mandiecucinotta7983]

Sometimes I’ll put butter in it, personally, but my mom doesn’t lol ☺️

[@rudylabsilica2286]

I usually don’t eat shrimp but this one looks delicious, I gotta try it!

[@justonecookbook]

Thank you!!! Hope you enjoy!

[@tharishinyvathumalae2733]

[@justonecookbook]

[@yuting-hsu]

I really love this new style and also the way you cut the garlic 😍

[@Leeland101mac]

Love the video style and recipe, I'm definitely going to try this out soon.

[@shawin2401]

Thanks Nami, tomorrow i will try but i don't have Japanese rice, i think i will try with my Thai rice (Jusmin rice). Thanks again for your recipe, lots of love from Thailand ❤️

[@justonecookbook]

Hope you enjoy!

[@aprilsnelling4568]

It looks delicious.Your presentation is beautiful. Thanks for sharing your recipe with us.🇯🇵🍚💕👍🏾

[@jannoelparedes7553]

[@chefclaudin6206]

I like it fancy meal. It's decent to the table. Love it, Nami. Thank you for all the good meals you've sharing. More power to you and your family

[@justonecookbook]

Thank you so much!

[@cristinechiam4169]

Will definitely try this garlic rice with grilled shrimps for my kids ;) This recipe reminds me of your fried rice with eggs & shrimps which my kids love it so much!

[@VincentImmortal]

I miss eating rice!!! Looks so delicious! Great job as always!

[@KrulciferEdenfelt]

Simple, but yet looks full of delicious flavor. Definitely trying this for lunch today! Thank you for the recipe! ~

[@justonecookbook]

Hope you enjoy!

[@vietnamapaco2029]

😍 It looks good, you detailed instructions, I will try to make it. However, with my 10-year experience specializing in the production of fried onions and fried garlic, if the garlic slices are fried like that, the bitter taste will still be quite a lot. You should cut them into pieces, rinse with water to drain, and mix with a little wheat flour and then fry, its taste will be better.

[@TerryElisabeth]

Yummy! How cute is that little dish with the handle!

[@chunjetlee9077]

Looks simple enough. I have to give it a try. Thank you so much.

[@RowantarotBlogspot]

I think this rice would be great in any donburi recipe. :) I like lots of flavour!

[@purplewatermelon7102]

i made this just now and it was so good. thank you

[@tunjungestypertiwi9681]

Looks simple and delicious. Okay, let's try!!! 😄😄😄

[@oof.4622]

I will add butter on the grilled shrimp

[@jolly5139]

I love the new style, Nami! 😁

[@justonecookbook]

Thank you!

[@pockystick6492]

Yay!! I always wanted to know how to make garlic fried rice at home ever since I tried it at a Japanese yakiniku restaurant... Super delicious. Also, that star-shaped stove is really stylish!! 🌟

[@justonecookbook]

Hope you enjoy this recipe!

[@MusicForTehWin]

The recipe is great. I have cooked garlic rice liked this just once, but it was a nice touch to the classic rice side dish

[@tiagokoprowski4563]

素晴らしい Nami-sensei

[@anngeewilson]

Thank you for sharing all your beautiful recipes, Namiko. Love your kitchen! Hopefully someday I'll have my very own kitchen like yours :)

[@ffx2player]

I've spent years perfecting my fried rice, but that can work against me for a quick meal or especially a bento. THIS looks so fast and easy, but full of flavour! Thank you for sharing :)

[@arejetko]

wow, nice job - and that's one sharp knife!

[@OmegaMegalodon]

amazing simple recipe! Nice, easy to cook. I love it!

[@NNNyancat777]

I love the new energy! Been waiting for your new recipes 🌟

Looks yummy and simple to make! Thank you for sharing 💓

[@AnimeAngelBSR]

As always a great Japanese dish! I can't wait to try! You are awesome! 😊✌

[@nrawson66]

This looks delicious!!! I might make it for Valentine’s Day!!! Where did you get the lovely dishes from? Beautiful!!!

[@justonecookbook]

I got the dishes from Thailand this past summer when I visited. I bought them, brought them back to Japan, and then back to SF. Long journey for those plates. :)

[@easypeasycooking6053]

Great job love your videos

[@angelinetoh4391]

love this recipe so much. thank you!!!

[@justonecookbook]

Aww thank you Angeline! :)

[@matlit1859]

This looks great! I will try this soon. I am surprised the rice retained its shape and texture even though you used freshly cooked rice. When making fried rice, I usually use day old rice.

[@justonecookbook]

Because it’s Japanese short grain rice. Stickier than other types of rice. 😊

[@HowToCookWithLook]

Superb healthy and yammy

[@kelliewilliams2895]

Awesome knife skills! 👍

[@tomchampion6574]

I like your new method of additional 'b' shots. It does improve understanding of how the dish turns out. I would ask that you show the flame under the pan. All burners are different & the best way to show hot, medium, and low is the flame. Is it typical to eat the shrimp cold? The Rice could be started before the Shrimp & both could be could be done near the same time & served warm. Very nice work.

[@justonecookbook]

Ideally yes, cook at the same time (and easily done so next to each other as shrimp needs less care while being grilled). For the video making, we only have Mr JOC to film and a bit difficult to cook at the same time for him to shoot. 😊 Thanks for your advice and flame!

[@tomchampion6574]

I forgot to mention I do like the new Intro & outro. Friendly-er (new word).

[@hannahle1340]

I made it today and it was a bomb!

[@luigigamermasterofmariokar9387]

For me, I would use leftover cooked rice regardless if it is long grain or Japanese short grain rice because the cooked grains separate if is leftover and use garlic, ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar, and cooked eggs.

[@adrieleje851]

Love the recipe and video! Will try out soon! I see you're enjoying using the china you brought from Japan!

[@justonecookbook]

Actually they are from Thailand and bought them while we visited this past summer. :)

[@adrieleje851]

Oh, awesome! I hope you had a blast!

[@a.i.dimmer4616]

looks delicious

[@AGNESC68]

very easy and nice recipe..now every one can have fried rice at home :D

[@coolabah-blue]

So pretty, and yummy I’m sure 😋love your video,

[@cashewha1694]

Looks delicious 😋

[@daehyunsong6212]

If it has garlic, I'm sure I'll love it! Though, I wonder if I will increase the amount of garlic or not (at least in later iterations of me making it.). Thanks for the recipe!

[@justonecookbook]

Sure! I mentioned about it in my blog post. 😊

[@expatwealthasia8702]

Awesome 👏👏

[@kallebert3]

Wow I love your new video recording 😍

[@justonecookbook]

Thank you so much, Karl!

[@brunobucciarati834]

こんいちわ！ i'm back again! Sorry that I was gone for so long :( Your channel has improved so much I LOVE IT!

[@justonecookbook]

Thank you Shiori! xo

[@tkdlahs]

I love garlic and butter combination!!! N like you used pan too. I'm looking for nonstick one. I only needed some veges like Kimchi salad?

[@justonecookbook]

I used t-fal brand here.

[@coolnessfactor1]

Arigato Nami-sensei. I will definitely give it a try :)

[@justonecookbook]

Hope you enjoy! :)

[@vynnartic2658]

What kind of sake do you use for the shrimp?

[@dwightturner3070]

With your cutting skill, you would make a great brain surgeon. BTW, is short grain rice the same as sticky rice?

[@justonecookbook]

Haha thank you for your kind compliment. No, sticky rice is not short grain rice. Short grain rice is considered regular rice, not glutinous rice (= sticky rice). However, short grain rice is the stickiest rice among regular rice - you can see the fried rice is sticky compared to jasmine rice etc.

[@marianuchiZz]

Would it be better to wait for the rice to cool down? It doesn't get mushy when you cook it when it's still warm/hot? Just asking :) love your recipes

[@kentakeda9424]

Wow! My lunch

[@lesliejacobs1439]

I am a little confused about the rice..the recipe says 2 rice cooker.. Uncooked short grain rice? So..cook 2 cups uncooked which will make about 4 cups cooked and use all that? 4 cups cooked rice..would it be better cooled. Or hot, or still warm..thanks so much.

[@chantimamusiprom8618]

I don't like butter flavor, then how can i try other similar ingredient instead? Thx for sharing xoxo

[@guitarDrummerwill]

is there any difference if i start with cold leftover rice?

[@StubbHun]

My favourite dish :D

[@jerrypierreponte5864]

Another great recipe, Nami! Thank you for sharing! I think I'll try this one over the weekend for sure. ;-)

[@MrRockfish01]

Looks really good, I wanted to know about the knife that you use in this video. Where can we but that brand of knifes?

[@justonecookbook]

I bought from a local knife shop, and it’s Kikuichi brand. You can buy online too.

[@mitsuokomatsu8715]

ขอบคุณครับ ありがとう

[@alanavitoria9154]

Thank you

[@canadaverydry]

Yummy!!!

[@paulsmith9341]

oishiso desu ne! Arigato!!!

[@mavdog5]

Is there any particular reason you use short grain rice? Is it better than long grain in this case?

[@justonecookbook]

Lucas Wuensch because Japanese use Japanese rice (short grain). 😊

[@mavdog5]

That makes sense. Thanks for the quick response!

[@miebakso293]

You should use overnight rice if you like it dry, fresh cook rice make it mushy.

[@MasterWingman]

where did you find the beautiful knife?

[@justonecookbook]

Kikuichi knife brand. :)

[@crm365dynamics]

Is there any alternative to sake ??

[@justonecookbook]

Dry sherry or Chinese rice wine. :)

[@alekschanna]

what is the diffrence between sushi rice and the rice you use in this video? are they maybe the same? ^^.

[@justonecookbook]

Thanks for asking. In japan, when we call “sushi rice”, it is steamed rice that’s seasoned with sushi vinegar seasoning and used ONLY for making all kinds of sushi. However outside of Japan people like to call regular Japanese short grain rice “sushi rice”... it is very confusing and wish it wasn’t called this way 😞

[@alekschanna]

thank you verry much for the explanation, i wish for the same thing that it wasn't called this way. here in the netherland japanese rice is expensive becouse of the marketing term "sushi rice" 500Gram for 3.99euro. its hard to find sake that is meant for cooking or that it is meant to drink it :(

[@Holly_hamigakiko]

could you use the left over fried rice into an onigiri do you think?

[@justonecookbook]

Sure! 😍👌

[@Holly_hamigakiko]

Awesome :-) we had some ace chahan onigiri in kyoto, so I thought it might be nice. Going to by an onigiri mould in Hiroshima in March as I keep dropping my filling everywhere!

[@juneseongmin]

Does it mean 1 ½ rice cooker cups uncooked Japanese short grain rice equals to 2 cup of cooked rice as mention in your video ?

[@justonecookbook]

Thank you!!! Mr JOC wrote correct amount. It is 2 cups.

[@juneseongmin]

Oh ok because you got me confuse there for a while glad it got corrected. Thank you Nami ! By the way I made your teriyaki sauce and I had teriyaki for 2 nights in a row chicken and fish. Going to try it with tofu next !! Excited

[@mothralord1709]

Will it taste bad if I use canola & sunflower oil?

[@justonecookbook]

That’s okay!
