Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare 1 packet of sliced ham. Typically, there are about 4 slices per packet. You can use any type of ham you prefer, such as Spam or other brands.
Step 2
Slice the ham into bite-sized pieces that are easy to eat. You can cut them into small cubes or longer strips, depending on your preference. Slice the onion into thin strips that match the size of the ham.
Step 3
Lightly grease a heated frying pan with cooking oil. Add the sliced ham, sliced onion, and minced garlic. Stir-fry over high heat for 1-2 minutes, being careful not to let the ingredients burn.
Step 4
Once the ham and onions are partially cooked, reduce the heat to low. Now, add all the seasoning ingredients: soy sauce, oligodang, and gochugaru. Stir well and continue to cook. Since the seasonings can burn easily, it’s important to cook slowly over low heat.
Step 5
Stir-fry until all the seasonings are evenly coated on the ham and vegetables. When it looks glossy and smells delicious, your pan-fried ham is ready! Turn off the heat and plate it nicely.
Step 6
Today, we’ve completed a super simple yet delicious meal with freshly stir-fried ham and eggs, a favorite for the kids! Enjoy it with a warm bowl of rice.
