Description
A quick and easy spam fried rice recipe with eggs, sesame, and nori for a flavorful meal.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 cups cooked white rice (cold, day-old is best)
- 1 (12 oz) can Spam, diced into small cubes
- 2 large eggs, beaten
- 2 tbsp soy sauce (plus more to taste)
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 1 tbsp butter (or neutral oil)
- 1–2 tbsp furikake or crushed nori (seaweed flakes)
- 1 tbsp sesame seeds
- 2 green onions, sliced (optional)
Instructions
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add diced Spam and cook 4–6 minutes, stirring, until browned and slightly crisp.
- Push Spam to one side. Add butter (or a little oil), pour in beaten eggs, and scramble until just set.
- Add cold cooked rice and break it up with a spatula. Stir everything together and fry 3–5 minutes until hot.
- Drizzle in soy sauce and sesame oil. Toss well until rice is evenly coated.
- Sprinkle in sesame seeds and furikake (or nori flakes). Toss again.
- Top with sliced green onions and serve hot.
Notes
- Cold rice = best texture.
- Fry Spam until crisp before adding eggs.
- Add soy a little at a time so it doesn’t get soggy.
