For the sticky SPAM®
For the fried rice
Instructions
- For the sticky SPAM®, place the soy sauce, garlic, ginger, hot sauce and honey into a bowl. Mix through and set aside.
- Heat the oil in a frying pan and add the SPAM®, season with salt & pepper and fry until browned on each side. Now add the sticky mixture and stir until fully coated. Be careful as the sauce can thicken fast - use a medium heat until the sauce sticks to the SPAM®. Set aside.
- For the fried rice, heat 1 tbsp of oil in a large frying pan over a low heat. Add the eggs and cook until cooked through and flip only once. Set aside and dice into small pieces.
- In the same pan heat the remaining oil over a medium heat, add the garlic, peas, sweetcorn and carrots, cook until tender - about 1 - 2 minutes.
- Add the SPAM® and rice, gently toss to combine. Add the soy sauce and season to taste cook for a further 1 - 2 minutes. Now stir in the eggs and springs onions. Divide between 4 bowls, enjoy!
