Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked jasmine rice (preferably day-old)
  • 1 can (12 oz) Spam, diced
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 3 green onions, chopped
  • 1 cup mixed frozen vegetables (peas, carrots, corn)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Rice: If you don’t have day-old rice, spread freshly cooked rice on a baking sheet and let it cool for about 30 minutes to reduce moisture.
  2. Cook the Spam: In a large skillet or wok, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the diced Spam and cook until it is crispy and browned, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the Spam from the skillet and set aside.
  3. Sauté Vegetables: In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of oil. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Then, add the mixed frozen vegetables and cook for 3-4 minutes until heated through.
  4. Scramble the Eggs: Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet. Pour the beaten eggs into the other side and scramble until fully cooked. Mix everything together.
  5. Combine Ingredients: Add the cooked rice and crispy Spam back into the skillet. Pour in the soy sauce and sesame oil, mixing well to combine all the ingredients. Stir-fry for an additional 3-4 minutes until everything is heated through.
  6. Season and Serve: Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed. Stir in the chopped green onions just before serving.

Spam Fried Rice is a quick and satisfying meal that brings together the comforting flavors of rice, eggs, and Spam. It's perfect for a weeknight dinner or a fun brunch option, and you can easily adapt it to include your favorite ingredients. Enjoy your culinary creation!
