Raymon Kim's Spam Potato Nuggets

The ultimate addictive beer snack made by mashing potatoes cooked to softness in the microwave, mixing them with salty spam and starch, then frying until crispy on the outside and tender inside.

Ingredients needed 3 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Pressing the surface of the dough with a fork helps release trapped steam during frying, preventing the nuggets from bursting.
  • Avoid using a blender for spam—it will become overly sticky; always chop finely with a knife and crush by hand to maintain texture.
  • Make a large batch, shape into portions, freeze for later use—just pop them in an air fryer when needed for convenient homemade snacks.

Recommended for

  • Those craving a crispy, salty finger food perfect for pairing with a cold beer.
  • Fans of the foolproof, dream-team combo of spam and potatoes looking to enjoy it in a tastier way.
  • Parents who want to make healthy homemade croquettes or potato nuggets that kids love.
