    Heat a generous amount of oil in a heated pan and add 1 tsp of minced garlic, stir-frying until the garlic aroma rises.

FAQ

Can I substitute other vegetables if I do not have broccoli?

You can use scallions (jjokpa) or large green onions (daepa) instead of broccoli, and adding carrots or ham to taste also works well.

Is there a way to make the golden yellow color deeper?

Adding 1 extra egg yolk into the rice along with the beaten eggs will produce an even more vibrant yellow color.

What is the secret to keeping the rice from clumping when stir-frying egg-coated rice?

Stir-fry in a heated pan with a generous amount of oil while stirring busily so it does not scorch; as the eggs cook, the grains of rice will separate and turn fluffy.
