I have already shared quite a few fried rice recipes until now and I am going to share one more today. The one I am going to share today is the burnt garlic fried rice recipe. It is one of those recipes that you can find on restaurant menus but seldom makes it at home. Unlike the normal fried rice, this one has a prominent taste of garlic that too a little burnt. But I can promise that you are going to love this recipe. So without any further due let’s get started with the recipe.
