Day 11- Tocilog

TODAY'S RECIPE: Tocilog (tocino, garlic fried rice, and sunny side up egg)
Blog Commentary: I bought some tocino this weekend and wanted to use it but since I'm doing a cooking blog, frying up a tocino isn't really cooking so I decided to add the sinangang, which is garlic fried rice, along w/ the egg to make Tocilog for breakfast! Below is the recipe for the fried rice and basically fried the egg and fried the (pork) tocino that I bought from an asian supermarket. Great, hearty breakfast! I just made some changes to the rice (as I had eggs whites left from the yema balls recipe).

Ingredients	Ingredients
Fried Rice 3 cups of day old, cooked rice 3 tbsp olive oil 4 cloves of garlic, minced 3 eggs, scrambled with 2 tbsp milk, 1 tbsp oil salt pepper 2 tbsp soy sauce Chives, chopped for garnish Optional ingredients; onion, bacon, ham, peas, tocino, corned beef	Fried Rice 3 cups of day old, cooked rice 3 tbsp olive oil 4 cloves of garlic, minced 6 egg whites, 1 egg, scrambled with 2 tbsp milk, 1 tbsp oil salt pepper 2 tbsp soy sauce Chives, chopped for garnish 3 piece of diced cooked ham
Procedures:	Procedures:
1. Begin by beating your eggs in a small bowl. To a small skillet, add about 1 tbsp of oil, and add in your eggs, cooking on both sides. Once cooked, remove to a cutting board and let cool. 2. To a large skillet, add the 3 tbsp of oil, and bring to a medium-high heat. Add in the garlic, and cook for a minute or two, until it becomes a light golden brown. Once it is browned, remove with a slotted spoon and set aside on some paper towel. 3. Add the rice to the oil, and begin to break it down, mixing it well, so the oil gets on all of the rice, and begins to fry. 4. Lower the heat to medium-low. Slice the cooked eggs, and get a nice dice on them. Add them to the rice, and mix well. I used three pieces of ham, and diced that as well. Add that to your fried rice, or use your optional items as well. Mix well. Add the soy sauce, and mix well. The soy sauce adds a bit of flavor, but is nice for the coloring. 5. Take half of your garlic chips and add to the rice, mixing well. You are done. Add to your serving bowl, sprinkle with the remaining garlic chips, and garnish with chopped chives.	1.
