This is the BEST Spam Fried Rice. It’s delicious and easy and full of nutritious vegetables.

Ingredients: 

• 1 and 1/2 cups of uncooked white rice cooked the night before and refrigerated
• 1 can of spam (340g and diced into cubes)
• egg mixture: 2 beaten eggs with 1/8 tsp of salt
• 1 bell pepper (diced into small pieces, I chose red for aesthetic reasons)
• 1/4 cup of frozen green peas
• 1/4 cup of corn
• 2 stalks of scallions (chopped)
• 1 tsp of fish sauce
• 1/2 tsp light soy sauce
• 1 red onion (diced)
• 1 tbsp sesame oil
• 1 tbsp vegetable oil in total
• 1 tbsp of butter

Instructions: 

1. Add salt to eggs, beat the egg mixture and set aside
2. In oiled wok, add spam, once they are golden brown. Set aside.
3. Add beaten eggs, scramble, fry until cooked.
4. Add day old rice, mix together with the scrambled eggs, push to the side.
5. Add oil if needed. Add bell pepper, corn, green peas, scallions, and onion, mix together, fry until softened. Cook for 2-3 min.
6. Add the spam back.
7. Add light soy sauce and secret ingredients: fish sauce and butter, mix well.
8. Pro-tip: add toasted (dark in color) sesame oil at the end as a finishing oil so the flavor stays fragrant. Toasted sesame oil is used in Asian cooking as a seasoning rather than a cooking oil. In most recipes, it’s typically added in the last stage of cooking or used in marinades, dressings, and sauces.
