Caramelized Spam and Eggs Recipe

Step 1

Cook the rice. Make the rice using a rice cooker or over the stove.

Step 2

Make fried garlic. Mince fresh garlic. Over a small frying pan on medium-high heat, pour in 5 tablespoons of vegetable oil. Add in the garlic and toss the garlic in the oil. Heat the garlic for about 1-2 minutes until golden brown and crispy and take off the heat. Set aside.

Step 3

Prepare the eggs. In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs with a pinch of salt and a pinch of white pepper.

Step 4

Cook the eggs. Using a medium pan over medium heat, pour a tablespoon of neutral vegetable oil to grease the pan. Pour in the whisked eggs and spread the eggs over the entire pan.

Step 5

For the softest scrambled eggs, use a rubber spatula and slowly and gently stir the eggs when the eggs are still runny until the eggs begin to come together.

Step 6

When the eggs become soft curds stop stirring and begin to gently push the eggs together or even fold the eggs on top of each other to make them extra fluffy. This should take 2-3 minutes total. Be sure to JUST undercook them. They will continue to cook off the heat.

Step 7

Cook the Spam. Cut the spam into cubes. Using a medium pan on medium heat, cook the spam until browned and crispy on the edges tossing every 2 minutes. Around 4-5 minutes.

Step 8

Make sauce. Mix soy sauce and water into a small bowl. Sprinkle the sugar evenly over the spam and toss the spam to evenly coat. Then pour in the soy sauce mixture. Swirl the sauce and toss the spam to evenly distribute. Let the spam simmer until nearly dissolved around 4-5 minutes. Flip the spam cubes every 2 few minutes.

Step 9

Serve. Serve the spam and eggs over white rice. Top with the fried garlic, furikake, sesame seeds, green onion.
