Spam Fried Rice I
3 tsp. cooking oil
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1/4 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. pepper
3 C. cooked, leftover rice (break up the clumps first!)
3/4 C. Spam (in chunks or in strips)
3/4 C. chopped veggies (peas, carrots, cucumber, bell peppers, onions, etc)
1 tsp. oyster sauce or 1 1/2 tsp. soy sauce
4 green onions, thinly sliced
2 garlic pieces (skin removed and sliced or cracked open)
Step 1. Put skillet on high heat. Add 1 tsp. oil and very lightly scramble eggs, salt, and pepper. Put eggs on the side on a plate or C.. Only lightly scramble them because we will put them back in later and cook them some more. Step 2. Put 2 tsp. oil in and let it heat up to medium-high heat. Add the garlic and spam. Let it lightly brown. The garlic fragrance should fill your kitchen too. Then add in your rice (de-clumped). Add the oyster sauce or soy sauce evenly and stir everything. Step 3. As you cook your rice, it should start to soak up the oyster sauce or soy sauce and may get a little crisp too, since leftover rice is not very wet. But stir occasionally, as you don’t want your rice to burn. Finally, add in your veggies, your green onion, and your eggs back in. Optional: Fried rice is really a flexible dish, so you can add anything you like! I personally like to add cayenne pepper and bits of ginger
