Crisp garlic chips, seared rib eye cubes that stay pink, and round Japanese rice stir-fried in the oil the garlic was fried in. A good way to use up yesterday's rice.
💡Very high heat and a large pan: the vegetables char instead of steaming, and don't overcrowd the pan.
2
Fry the garlic in it 3–4 minutes, stirring, until light golden. Lift out with a slotted spoon onto paper towels, and keep the oil, which has absorbed the garlic flavor.

Sprinkle the salt and black pepper over the beef cubes, turn the heat up to maximum and sear the cubes in a single layer 2 minutes, stir and sear another minute, until the meat is browned outside and pink inside. Remove to a plate.

4
Add the cold rice, separate the grains with a spatula and stir-fry 4–5 minutes over high heat.

💡Cold, dry day-old rice stays in separate grains; hot fresh rice releases steam and starch and sticks together in a lump.
5
Pour the soy sauce and mirin along the sides so they evaporate and caramelize before they meet the rice, and stir.
Stove
6
Return the beef cubes with the juices collected on the plate, add most of the green onion and half the garlic chips and stir-fry another minute.
Stove
7
Turn off the heat, drizzle in the sesame oil and divide among bowls. Scatter the rest of the garlic chips on top along with the rest of the green onion and serve.
