Fried Rice Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Rice

    Cook 2 cups of jasmine rice according to package instructions. Once cooked, spread it out on a baking sheet to cool and dry for about 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Prepare Spam and Vegetables

    While the rice is cooling, dice the Spam into small cubes. Chop the carrots into small pieces and slice the green onions.

  3. 3

    Fry the Spam and Vegetables

    Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat. Add the diced Spam and fry until crispy. Add the carrots and frozen peas, stir-frying for about 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

  4. 4

    Add the Rice

    Add the cooled jasmine rice to the wok. Pour in the soy sauce, and stir everything together, breaking up any clumps of rice. Cook for another 5 minutes, stirring frequently.

  5. 5

    Scramble the Eggs

    Push the rice mixture to one side of the wok. Crack the eggs into the empty side and scramble them until fully cooked. Stir the eggs into the rice mixture, combine well.

  6. 6

    Season and Serve

    Season with salt and pepper to taste. Add the chopped green onions, mix well, and serve hot.
