Instructions

Dice the spam into cubes or bite-sized pieces.
Combine the soy sauce, mirin, and sugar and then add it to the diced spam. Stir to combine. Allow it to sit for 10 to 15 minutes.
Using a slotted spoon, transfer the marinated spam to a non-stick skillet on medium-high heat. Do not discard the marinade.
Stir every couple of minutes with a rubber spatula so the other sides can caramelize. If you stir it too often, the sides won't have time to crisp up.
Once the edges of the cubed spam have crisped up, add 2 to 3 spoonful of the mainade to the pan, lower the heat to medium-low, and allow the sauce to simmer for 3 to 4 minutes, stirring frequently. Set the cubed spam aside.
Rinse or wipe clean the pan and add the butter to the pan, over medium heat.
Beat the eggs with the salt, pepper, and garlic powder before adding it to the pan.
Gently and slowly stir the eggs with a rubber spatula to make fluffy scrambled eggs. Fold the eggs within themselves. When the eggs are mostly cooked, it should look custard-like, remove from heat. The residual heat from the pan will finish cooking the eggs and keep them fluffy. This shouldn't take more than 4 to 5 minutes.
Assemble the rice bowls by adding the caramelized spam and scrambled eggs overtop a bowl of warm cooked rice.
