  • 1/4 cup (30 g) carrot (diced)
  • 100 g spam (or your choice of meat or veggies)

  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp ketchup
  • 3 eggs (large)
  • 1 tbsp milk
  • pinch of salt
  • ketchup and parsley (optional) (for garnish)

Directions

  1. 1

    Heat oil in a large pan over medium heat, and add green onion and onion. Cook until fragrant. Add carrot, spam, and mushroom, and cook for 3-4 minutes.

  2. 2

    Add rice, soy sauce, and ketchup and mix to combine, ensuring all grains are evenly coated. Add to a small bowl and press down to shape the rice.

    Place a large plate over the bowl of rice, hold it in the center, and flip carefully to plate the rice in a dome shape. Cover the rice with the egg omelette, and garnish with ketchup and parsley to serve. Enjoy!
