Fried eggs, to serve

METHOD

1.Heat oil in a wok over medium-high heat. Add garlic and cook for 2-3 minutes until golden. Remove using a slotted spoon and set aside. Add pork to the garlic oil in the wok and cook, breaking up mince with a wooden spoon, for 6-7 minutes until lightly caramelised. Add chilli bean sauce and cook for 2 minutes or until lightly caramelised. Add chives and rice and cook, tossing in the pan, for 3 minutes or until coloured.
