Ingredients needed 🛒2 servings
- 1 can Spam
- 2 bowls instant rice
- Appropriate amount of minced vegetables for fried rice
- 2-3 eggs
- A little sesame oil
- A little green onion
- A little salt
Recipe 🍳
- Dice the Spam into small cubes and prepare.
- Heat the pan without oil, then add the diced Spam and stir-fry until it renders enough of its own oil.
- Once the Spam releases its oil and starts to brown, add the minced mixed vegetables and stir-fry together.
- When the vegetables are cooked, add the instant rice. Maintain high heat and stir-fry, mixing well to ensure the rice grains are separated and fluffy.
- Push the fried rice to one side of the pan. Crack the eggs into the empty space and quickly stir to create moist scrambled eggs.
- Once the eggs are cooked, combine them with the rice pushed to the side and stir-fry lightly together.
- Add a little salt to season to taste.
- Just before turning off the heat, drizzle in a little sesame oil to add a nutty aroma and mix well.
- Serve the fried rice generously in a bowl, sprinkle with chopped green onions, and top with a fried egg if desired to complete the dish.
- Stir-fry spam in a heated pan without oil to render its fat, then stir-fry with minced vegetables.
- Add instant rice and stir-fry until fluffy over high heat. Scramble eggs in one side of the pan and mix them in.
- Season with salt, then finish by adding sesame oil, green onions, and a fried egg before turning off the heat.
Cooking tips 💡
- Since Spam renders plenty of oil on its own, avoid adding cooking oil to prevent the fried rice from being greasy and to achieve a clean taste.
- Using a pre-minced vegetable mix is convenient and efficient, as it eliminates leftover ingredients.
- When stir-frying rice, use high heat and cook quickly without interruption to evaporate the moisture from the rice grains and maintain a fluffy texture.
