Steps

1

Dice the Spam small and slice the garlic into thin chips.

~4 min

2

Heat oil in a pan and fry the garlic over low heat until golden, then set the garlic chips aside.

~4 min

Why: Frying the garlic separately makes crispy chips that add a nutty crunch and aroma.

Watch out: High heat burns the garlic quickly — keep it low.

3

In the same pan, sear the Spam until golden, then add the rice and stir-fry over high heat, seasoning with soy sauce, oyster sauce, and black pepper.

~5 min

4

In a separate pan, fry the eggs.

~3 min

5

Mix green onion and sesame seeds into the fried rice, plate, and top with the fried eggs and garlic chips.

~2 min

Tips

  • Fry the garlic chips separately and add them at the end so they stay crispy.

  • Frying the rice in the Spam's rendered fat adds savoriness without needing extra oil.

  • Top with a soft fried egg and mix in the yolk for extra richness.

Storage

Fried rice tastes best fresh; refrigerate and reheat the next day if needed.
