Print

It’s like longsilog, but all mixed together ~ which makes for easy eating. And these days easy meals are necessary because anything I can eat with one hand while holding the baby in the other is clutch!

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1

    In a large skillet or wok, add the longanisa and cook until browned and cooked through. Remove from the pan, leaving any rendered fat behind.

  2. 2

    If necessary, add a little more oil to the pan. Add the diced onion and minced garlic. Sauté until softened and fragrant, about 3-5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Stir in the day-old rice, breaking apart any clumps. Stir-fry for a few minutes until heated through.

  4. 4

    Push the rice to one side of the pan. Crack the eggs into the empty space and scramble them until just set. Mix the eggs into the rice.

  5. 5

    Add the cooked longanisa back into the pan. Stir to combine.

  6. 6

    Sprinkle in the garlic powder and season with salt and pepper to taste. Mix well.

  7. 7

    Fold in the chopped chives or green onions for a fresh touch.

  8. 8

    Top with fried garlic and garnish with sliced tomatoes if desired.
