Ingredients
Scale
- 1 can Spam (cut into thin slices or cubes)
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp brown sugar (or honey)
- 1 tbsp cooking oil (vegetable or sesame oil)
- 4 eggs (fried, scrambled, or soft-boiled — your choice)
- 1 green onion, thinly sliced (for garnish)
- Steamed rice (optional, for serving)
Instructions
- Prep the Spam: Slice or cube the Spam into even pieces.
- Cook Spam: Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add Spam slices and fry until golden brown and crisp on the edges.
- Caramelize: Sprinkle in the brown sugar and soy sauce. Toss to coat the Spam, letting the sauce thicken and caramelize (about 2–3 minutes).
