Ingredients

4 cups cooked jasmine rice or long-grain or short-grain white rice, cold day-old
1 can spam low-sodium, diced into ½" cubes
2 large eggs beaten
1 cup frozen diced carrots rinsed with cold water & strained
⅓ cup frozen peas rinsed with cold water & strained
⅓ cup frozen corn rinsed with cold water & strained
1 small shallot finely chopped
2 green onions finely chopped
2 garlic cloves minced
2 tablespoon vegetable oil or any neutral tasting oil
2 tablespoon regular soy sauce or light soy sauce
1 tablespoon dark soy sauce
1 tablespoon butter unsalted
¼ teaspoon salt if needed
1 teaspoon sesame oil

Instructions

Heat a dry wok or large pan on medium-high heat. Then fry diced Spam until golden brown. Then add shallots and fry until softened.
Next add vegetable oil, green onions, and garlic and stir-fry until fragrant, about 10 seconds.
Then add corn, peas, and carrots, and toss until evenly combined. Push everything to the side of the pan to make an empty space.
Then add the beaten eggs into the empty space. Let the eggs sit for 10-15 seconds first before scrambling and breaking up into bite-size pieces.
Add cold, day-old rice. Then pour regular soy sauce and dark soy sauce along the edges of the pan and let it sizzle for 5 seconds. Then add unsalted butter and if needed, add salt to taste.
Toss until evenly combined and the grains are no longer white. Season with sesame oil and garnish with more green onions. Enjoy!
