Instructions
- Cut the Spam into cubes and put in a Ziplock bag. Mix oyster sauce, soy sauce, and sugar until sugar is dissolved and add to the bag with the SPAM. Marinate for about 15 minutes. Drain the marinade from the bag into a small bowl. Save and set aside.
- Heat sesame oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the whites of the green onions to the hot oil and stir until clear and light brown. Stir in garlic. When garlic is lightly browned, add Spam and cook for 3-4 minutes.
- Add carrots, peas, and edamame and cook until they are tender. Scoot everything to one side of the pan and crack eggs onto the empty side. Scramble with a spatula or chopsticks. When they are cooked, mix in with the rest of the ingredients.
- Add cooked rice to skillet and mix in thoroughly. Add leftover SPAM marinade a few tablespoons at a a time until the rice is lightly coated in sauce. Add more to taste, if desired. Top with the greens from the green onions.
Notes
- Make a big batch of this rice because it stays nice and fresh in the refrigerator for up to a week! You can freeze leftovers too; just use freezer safe bags or containers and push as much air out as possible.
- For a "dry" fried rice, steam the white rice a day ahead. After cooking rice, let it cool to room temperature. Place the rice in an airtight container and keep it in the fridge overnight. Add refrigerated rice to the skillet as described in the instructions above.
- If you're not crazy about Spam, this fried rice tastes delicious with shredded or cubed pork, chicken or even shrimp. Or omit the meat altogether for a vegetarian dish.
