Ingredients

• 4 cups cooked white rice (cooled overnight)
• 1 can spam (diced)
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 3 tablespoons finadene sauce (optional, for garnish)
• 2 tablespoons cooking oil
• 3 large eggs (beaten)
• 3 stalks green onions (thinly sliced)
• 1 cup carrots (diced small)
• 1 cup frozen peas
• 1 medium onion (diced)
• 3 cloves garlic (minced)
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon salt

Directions

Step 1

Heat 1 tablespoon of cooking oil in a large nonstick skillet or wok over medium-high heat.

Step 2

Add the diced spam and cook until golden and crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the spam from the skillet and set aside.

Step 3

In the same skillet, add the beaten eggs and scramble them until just set. Remove from the skillet and set aside with the spam.

Step 4

Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of cooking oil to the skillet, then sauté the diced onion and garlic until fragrant, about 2 minutes.

Step 5

Stir in the diced carrots and frozen peas, cooking until the vegetables are tender, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 6

Add the cooled white rice to the skillet, breaking up any clumps with a spatula, and stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until heated through.

Step 7

Return the cooked spam and scrambled eggs to the skillet. Mix to combine evenly with the rice.

Step 8

Drizzle the soy sauce over the rice mixture, stirring constantly to ensure the flavors are evenly distributed.

Step 9

Season with black pepper and salt, then adjust to taste as needed.

Step 10

Garnish with sliced green onions and serve hot. Optionally, drizzle finadene sauce on top for added flavor.
