Mayonnaise and garlic with rice? Have I lost my mind? Yes, long ago. But this delicious fried rice is super super savory. The Japanese mayonnaise really brings all the flavors together while also providing substantial richness. It's so tasty that I actually can't taste the garlic. You might get a stronger garlic flavor if you mince it finely. Keep in mind that Kewpie mayo has a different flavor than most American mayonnaises, it's more rich and creamy, and slightly sweet with a little tang.
