Share recipe
Description
A simple recipe to use up all your pantry ingredients and the Spam® in the back of your cupboard.
Ingredients
- 1 (12 ounce) can fully cooked luncheon meat (such as SPAM®), cubed
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 onion, diced
- 4 cups leftover cooked rice
- 1 cup frozen peas and carrots
- 4 large eggs, beaten
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- ½ tablespoon Sriracha
- 4 large eggs
- salt and ground black pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon shredded nori, or to taste
- 1 tablespoon sliced scallions, or to taste
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds, or to taste
- 1 teaspoon black sesame seeds, or to taste
Directions
- 1. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add Spam® and fry until lightly browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
- 2. Heat sesame oil in the same pan until shimmering, about 1 minute. Add onion and saute until it softens slightly, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat and add rice and frozen vegetables; mix and fry until heated through, about 5 minutes. Push the rice mixture to the sides or edges of the pan, add beaten eggs to the center, and scramble until curds form, 3 to 4 minutes.
- 3. Stir half of the Spam® back into the pan and mix the eggs in with the rest of the rice mixture. Add soy sauce and Sriracha. Mix and remove from the heat.
- 4. Crack remaining eggs into a skillet over medium heat. Cook until outer edges become opaque, about 1 minute. Cover, reduce heat to low, and cook until whites are completely set, about 4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
- 5. Place fried eggs on top of the fried rice, add reserved Spam®, and garnish with nori, scallions, and sesame seeds.
