Key Ingredients- 2 leaves of fresh cabbage
- 1/3 can of Spam
- 2 fresh eggs
- 50g carrot for color and texture
- 1 bowl of warm rice
Flavor Enhancers- 1/2 Tbsp sesame oil for nutty aroma
- 2 Tbsp cooking oil for sautéing
- 1/2 Tbsp sesame oil for nutty aroma
- 2 Tbsp cooking oil for sautéing
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, wash the carrot thoroughly, peel it, and julienne it into thin strips. If julienning is difficult, a food processor can be used.
Step 2
Remove the Spam from the can and cut it into bite-sized pieces (about 1-1.5cm thick). You can dice it or cut it into your preferred shape. Rinsing the Spam under cold water after opening the can can help reduce its saltiness.
Step 3
Remove the core from the cabbage and thinly slice it into shreds. Slicing the cabbage thinly ensures a tender texture when stir-fried and allows the sauce to be absorbed well.
Step 4
Crack the 2 eggs into a clean bowl. Use a fork or chopsticks to gently whisk them until the yolk and white are well combined. Removing the chalazae will result in a smoother egg mixture.
Step 5
In another bowl, combine all the sauce ingredients: 2 Tbsp soy sauce, 2 Tbsp allulose (or sugar), 8 Tbsp water, and 1 Tbsp cooking wine. Stir well until the sugar or allulose is completely dissolved. This creates your delicious sauce base!
Step 6
Heat 2 Tbsp of cooking oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the julienned cabbage and carrot and stir-fry until the cabbage becomes translucent and slightly wilted.
Step 7
Once the cabbage has softened, add the cut Spam to the pan and stir-fry together. Continue to cook until the Spam is lightly browned and starts to render its fat, which adds more flavor.
Step 8
When the Spam is nicely browned and the ingredients are well combined, pour the prepared sauce into the pan. Increase the heat to high and let the sauce reduce and coat the ingredients for about 1-2 minutes.
Step 9
Once the sauce has thickened slightly and coated the ingredients, pour the whisked egg mixture evenly into the pan, over any empty spaces or on top of the ingredients. It’s best to reduce the heat to low at this stage.
Step 10
As the egg begins to set, resist the urge to stir vigorously. Let it cook undisturbed until it’s softly set. You can gently break it apart with chopsticks once it’s partially cooked if you prefer scrambled-style eggs.
Step 11
Finally, drizzle 1/2 Tbsp of sesame oil over the entire pan for a fragrant finish. Turn off the heat and let the residual heat gently infuse the sesame aroma.
Step 12
Serve a bowl of warm rice. You can adjust the amount of rice according to your preference.
Step 13
Now, generously top the rice with the deliciously stir-fried cabbage and Spam mixture. Adding the softly cooked egg completes this wonderful Cabbage Spam Rice Bowl! Enjoy your meal.
