Ingredients
Fried rice
- ½ c frozen peas
- ½ c frozen carrots
- 1 c filtered water
- neutral oil
- 3 large eggs scrambled
- 6 oz low sodium Spam diced into ⅜-inch cubes
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 7 c jasmine rice day-old, cooked and crumbled (2 c uncooked jasmine rice yields 7 c cooked jasmine rice)
- 1 talk green onion sliced thinly for topping
- kosher salt as needed
Sauce
- 3 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tbsp oyster sauce
- 2 tbsp mirin
- 2 tbsp sake
- 1 tsp light brown sugar
Instructions
- In a heat-safe bowl, add the frozen peas, frozen carrots, and water. Microwave for five minutes or until al dente and the peas no longer feel powdery/raw. Strain and then set aside.
- In a large pan over medium-low heat, add one tablespoon of neutral oil and the scrambled eggs. Cook until opaque and transfer to a bowl. Remove eggs from the pan for later.
- Add the diced Spam into the hot pan and cook for about two minutes or until browning. Add the garlic and stir until fragrant (about 30 seconds).
- Break apart the cold jasmine rice with a spatula (or clean hands) and add this evenly to the pan. Mix thoroughly to reheat the rice. Add more neutral oil if it’s too dry.
- Add the peas and carrots to the rice and mix.
- In a small bowl, mix together the sauce ingredients. Pour the sauce on the rice and mix to coat every grain of rice. Keep frying/tossing the rice until it crisps or gets to a level of browning or charring that you like.
- Add cooked eggs and green onions, gently mix.
- Taste test the rice and add salt if you need extra seasoning, then serve.
