Main Ingredients
- Spam 200g (1 can)
- 1/2 Onion
- 4 Scallions (green onions)
- 6 Eggs
- A pinch of sesame seeds
- Mayonnaise, to drizzle
- 3 Tbsp Vegetable oil
- 2.5 bowls Cooked rice
Special Rice Bowl Sauce
- 1.5 Tbsp Soy sauce
- 3 Tbsp Mirin (or rice wine)
- 1 Tbsp Sesame oil
- 0.5 Tbsp Sugar
- 1.5 Tbsp Soy sauce
- 3 Tbsp Mirin (or rice wine)
- 1 Tbsp Sesame oil
- 0.5 Tbsp Sugar
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, crack 6 eggs into a bowl. Remove the chalazae (the white stringy bits) and whisk them gently with a fork or whisk until smooth. Don’t worry about over-whisking.
Step 2
Dice the 200g Spam into roughly 1cm cubes. Thinly slice the 1/2 onion, and finely chop the 4 scallions for garnish.
Step 3
Heat 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a pan over medium-low heat. Add the sliced onion and sauté until it becomes translucent. This step helps bring out the onion’s natural sweetness.
Step 4
Once the onion is softened, add the diced Spam to the pan and stir-fry together. The Spam will release its own delicious fat, adding to the flavor.
Step 5
When the Spam and onion are nicely browned, pour in all the prepared rice bowl sauce ingredients: 1.5 Tbsp soy sauce, 3 Tbsp mirin, 1 Tbsp sesame oil, and 0.5 Tbsp sugar. Stir well to combine.
Step 6
Continue to stir the mixture in the pan over medium-low heat as it simmers. Cook for about 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens and coats the Spam and onion beautifully. Be careful not to let it burn!
Step 7
In a separate pan with a little oil, pour in the beaten eggs and scramble them. Use chopsticks or a spatula to gently stir and break them into soft curds. Avoid overcooking to keep them tender.
Step 8
Place 2.5 bowls of warm cooked rice into a serving bowl. Arrange the scrambled eggs neatly around the edge of the rice.
Step 9
Spoon the thickened Spam and onion mixture generously onto the center of the rice. It’s already looking incredibly appetizing!
Step 10
Finally, drizzle mayonnaise in a zigzag pattern over the Spam mixture. Sprinkle the chopped scallions generously on top, followed by a scattering of toasted sesame seeds. Your delicious Spam Mayo Rice Bowl is ready to enjoy!
