Categories     Main Dish Recipes     Rice     Fried Rice Recipes

Time 40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 14

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

Steps:

  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add Spam® and fry until lightly browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • Place fried eggs on top of the fried rice, add reserved Spam®, and garnish with nori, scallions, and sesame seeds.

ABSOLUTELY THE BEST SPAM FRIED RICE



Absolutely the Best Spam Fried Rice image

I really like fried rice and was searching and searching for a recipe that I liked. My brother is a college student and one of his friends made some for dinner the night before and I snitched a bite the next day (I tried it cold, right from the fridge) and it was the best I have ever had (and it was cold)! His friend didn't have a written recipe to give me (he made the recipe up and just makes it), so I finally talked him into coming to my house to show me while I wrote the recipe down. My brother told me that there would be 5 of them coming over and to have the rice cooked and cooled. I had no idea how much rice to cook, so I made 4 1/2 cups (dry) rice. It made a ton, but after 7 of us ate (most had 2 bowls full) there was only 1 bowl as left overs. I am sure you can adjust this to make less. I had the original Kikkoman soy sauce to use and it was saltier and less sweet as the Aloha Shoyu that my brother's friend nomally uses. The serving amounts is a large range because you can have it as a meal like we did, or as a side dish.

Categories     White Rice

Time 40m

Yield 8-14 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 1/2 cups dry rice, cooked and cooled (preferably day old)
6 -7 eggs, with a splash water, scrambled
1 (11 ounce) can spam lite, diced
1 yellow onion, diced
12 ounces frozen peas and carrots, thawed
1 cup aloha shoyu soy sauce (or Kikkoman soy sauce, just use a bit more sugar to sweeten)
4 -5 tablespoons sugar, for aloha shoyu or 6 -7 tablespoons for Kikkoman soy sauce
4 -5 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons oyster sauce
1 teaspoon sesame oil

Steps:

  • Scramble eggs in about 1/2 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a wok on medium high heat. When done, set aside in a bowl.
  • Place another tablespoon of oil in wok and sauté onions and Spam on medium high heat. When golden & starting to crisp on the outsides add the thawed peas and carrots.
  • Combine ingredients for the sauce and stir until sugar is dissolved, tasting along the way to be sure it is sweet enough for you. Add to the vegetables and boil on high until the sauce reduces to a glaze.
  • Slowly add the cooled rice and eggs to the vegetable mixture, being sure to break up any clumps of rice and so the coloring is even. Warm the rice through and serve.

Macaroni and Cheese-Maple Fried Spam image

My husband made this dish for me and I watched him with an extremely skeptical look on my face. I didn't like Spam and the whole maple syrup thing just sounded weird. Boy, was I ever wrong. The sweetness of the syrup and the saltiness of the Spam are one of the best flavor combinations.

GLORIOUS SPAM BURGERS WITH GUACAMOLE & FRIED EGG



Glorious Spam Burgers With Guacamole & Fried Egg image

I have recently discovered the glory that is Spam. People say if you're not introduced to it as a kid, you will hate it as an adult. LIES! I tried it at 28 and am in love. So versatile, and the way it just melts in your mouth like some sort of creamy meatcake is out of this world. Here is a burger recipe I came up with, and I like it more than a regular burger. I used Turkey Spam, which is just as good as the original and has 1/3 of the fat and calories. Regular Spam or Light Spam would work well too, I'm sure.
