Spam Loco Moco is a delicious Hawaiian comfort food that combines savory spam, fluffy rice, and a rich brown gravy, topped with a perfectly cooked egg. This dish is not only satisfying but also easy to make, making it a great choice for a family meal or a fun dinner with friends.

Ingredients

  • 4 cups cooked white rice
  • 2 cans (12 oz each) Spam, sliced into 1/4-inch thick pieces
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 cups beef or chicken gravy (store-bought or homemade)
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • Chopped green onions (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Rice: If you haven't already, cook 4 cups of white rice according to package instructions. Set aside and keep warm.
  2. Cook the Spam: In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the sliced Spam and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
  3. Prepare the Gravy: In the same skillet, add the gravy, soy sauce, garlic powder, and black pepper. Stir well and heat until the gravy is warm. If you prefer a thicker gravy, you can mix in a little cornstarch dissolved in water.
  4. Fry the Eggs: In a separate non-stick pan, fry the eggs sunny-side up or to your desired doneness. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
  5. Assemble the Dish: To serve, place a scoop of warm rice on each plate. Top with 2-3 slices of crispy Spam, a generous ladle of gravy, and finally, place a fried egg on top.
  6. Garnish: Sprinkle chopped green onions over the top for added flavor and presentation.

Spam Loco Moco is a simple yet hearty dish that brings together flavors and textures in a delightful way. It's perfect for any occasion and can be customized with additional toppings like avocado or sriracha for an extra kick. Enjoy your delicious creation!
