Description
Caramelized Spam and Eggs Over Rice is a savory, sweet, and satisfying dish featuring crispy caramelized Spam, fluffy scrambled eggs, and steamed white rice, topped with furikake, green onions, sesame seeds, and optional fried garlic for extra crunch.
Ingredients
- Sauce: 1 tablespoon soy sauce, 1/4 cup water, 2 tablespoons sugar
- Eggs: 6 large eggs, whisked; 1/4 teaspoon salt; 1/4 teaspoon white pepper; 1 tablespoon oil (for scrambling)
- Main: 1 can (12 oz) Spam, diced into 1-inch cubes; 2 cups cooked white rice
- Toppings: Furikake, chopped green onion, fried garlic, sesame seeds
Instructions
- Prepare the caramel sauce: In a small saucepan, combine soy sauce, water, and sugar. Heat over medium heat until sugar dissolves and mixture thickens slightly. Set aside.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a skillet over medium heat and scramble the eggs with salt and white pepper until just set. Remove and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add diced Spam and cook over medium heat until browned and slightly crispy.
- Pour the prepared sauce over the Spam and cook for 2–3 minutes until caramelized, stirring to coat evenly.
- Serve caramelized Spam over cooked white rice and top with scrambled eggs.
- Garnish with furikake, chopped green onions, sesame seeds, and optional fried garlic.
- Serve immediately while warm.
Notes
- Fried garlic: thinly slice garlic and fry in oil until golden brown; drain on paper towels.
- Adjust sugar in the sauce for preferred sweetness.
- Use short-grain rice for the best texture.
