Aaron, years ago you did a Spam video and that changed my whole attitude towards it. It went from being a food I would keep around for when times were tough, and now it's a staple of my fried rice and Korean inspired soups/stews from your channel. I got quite excited when I saw "Spam" in the video title and with this new variant with the aromatic oil is giving me something to look forward to the next time I cook a batch of rice for later in the week. Bravo, sir
I just made this for dinner (doubled the spam and soaked up some of the fat with a paper towel in the pan) and it’s delicious!! Definitely making this again
Wow, I tried this out using a single serve portion of one of those microwave rices and it came out amazing!! This is going to be a game changer....just making a single serving of fried rice whenever I want one!! And, I've always had a bit of trouble in the past getting just the right consistency with the rice I use for fried rice. Using the precooked rice helps a lot with that, too. Thank you!
Been eating this since a kid. I love spam fried rice! Sometimes my family will add celery, and frozen peas and carrots too. I know celery sounds weird, but it works because of the salty spam.
I've eaten this (with celery), it's pretty if the celery is just cooked that little bit so it's bright green. I like celery but don't use much at once, it's almost like a seasoning? So it's always a challenge if it's in the fridge to use the whole thing before it wilts... so there will be celery in everything for awhile! I think it works well with the SPAM!
OMG me too. I’ve been eating it for 56 years oops 57 (forgot my birthday came 😂) and have been cooking it at least once a week for 37 years. I have realized that 2/3 of the soy sauce should get caramelized and 1/3 on the last couple of minutes to give it both flavor profiles. I use frozen peas with carrots to make it easier or if I have a lot of fresh carrots, I’ll cook it with the whites of the green onions. I also like to cube the egg in my chopper along with the carrots and spam to get a nicer look. I have not found 1 person to dislike this recipe and have taught many on the method. I don’t use the mirin and use a fraction of the sesame oil but on the second day, we often add eel sauce which has mirin in it. I garnish it with the green end chives and sesame seeds. You can also add crushed fried onions (like French’s) on the second day with the eel sauce for a sushi feel…I’ve even enjoyed it with a little Kewpie Mayo….but not on the first day; the fresh flavor needs to be enjoyed.
@@leonardpearlman4017 It helps to chop it, freeze it on a pan for a couple of hours then bag it and wrap it in foil to keep it from getting freezer burn. I store it in portion size for Spam Fried Rice. Keep the tips of the celery separate for soup.
Your sauce and hot rice tips helped me make some of the best fried rice I've ever made! Perfectly seasoned, tender (but not dry) rice, and very easy to make! Thank you as always, Aaron & Claire!
I made this last night and my kids devoured it. My son is a bit iffy with eggs but he loves it and my daughter wanted leftovers for her school lunch. Edit: Kid just came home, unpacked her lunch box, gave me a serious look and said, “This. Was. So. Good.” Big win for mom.
Today, I followed your recipe and I felt like I needed some vegetable, so I added onion to my fried rice. Omg I can’t believe it!!! It was the best fried rice I’ve ever had. Thank you so much Aaron and Claire ❤
I introduced your channel to my mother in law while she was visiting. Then afterwards, I also introduced her to H Mart and helped her buy the best Korean staple ingredients and the stuff to make your spicy chilie garlic noodles.
I made this like 2 days ago, and it's all anyone ate since. Looks like I'm back again for another batch! Lol Thanks for the quick and easy to understand video. I'm newer to cooking and this was a wonderful recipe to learn with!
I thought this was Hawaiian when I first saw the video, but it has more stuff, I think has become Korean. I think the short grain rice is a little more trouble to work with but worth it. I once read that long-grain rice was better for mixed rice dishes, rice cooked with something, and short-grain rice was better if you were going to eat rice by itself. I have bought Korean brands of rice that were short grain with a small amount of glutinous rice in it, which seemed like a noticeable improvement. Anyway when we're making fried rice from cold leftovers I think we're in the middle, plus it's going to be seasoned so maybe you could "Use what you have" as Aaron so often says!
I will not try your dishes again. Each time my life is changed. It's a back and forth, I can't stand it. And when I'm back where I started after every second meal, nothing has really changed in my life.🤣
Ooh I’ve been working off one of your previous fried rice recipes! Definitely going to start making this one now :). Too bad we just finished eating our kimchi my girlfriend made from your book!
Aaron! My husband is finally asking for more Korean food (instead of just eating it because my menu is take it or leave it!). Can we get more soft tofu recipes?
What? There are new flavors now, different size packages, imitations... it takes up a lot of shelf-space in some stores! During the pandemic and other emergencies it gets sold out FAST! Might take months to recover the fully stocked shelves in the store.
I saw a picture of a MacDonald's in Hawaii that had SPAM, Eggs and Rice for breakfast, with a cup of black coffee. I now do this at home sometimes. It's elemental- pink, yellow, white, black. I don't think there's any seasoning! But it's a satisfying meal, and couldn't be much simpler. I guess you could mix it all up in a big pot and serve it in a bowl?
I went grocery shopping after watching this video Aaron and Claire and bought spam! I haven’t made the spam and egg fried rice! I haven’t had spam since I was young so I’m really looking forward to cooking this recipe. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I have never eaten spam, saw it once in the shop but it was so insanely expensive so I didn't think it was worth the money, and now the don't have it anymore.
Aaron, Claire, hello from France, i cooked so many of your receipe and i never been disappointed, i bouhgt your book and just received it this morning, i'm very happy about it, i'm waiting for your next one🎉i wish you all thé best
This is my family’s secret recipe for over 56 years except for 1 missing ingredient (crucial), and minus the mirin however, we often add eel sauce on the second day; so minus the sugar. We’ve been eating this since I was 2 years old. It has always been our favorite growing up. The second is lubia pollow (Iranian rices) or adas pollow with minced hamburger. Of course these rices use basmati and for the lubia variety, use tomato sauce from the tube or you will get wet rice. 🍚
I made this today and my uncle said it was good and that i should make more in the future!! Except we ran out of eggs but i had a can of corn so i added that in for some veggies + some chili sauce for the spice. Next time I'll make with eggs. Thanks Aaron!
You can swap quinoa for rice, any onion even dried, liquid aminos or teriyaki sauce for soy sauce, hot dogs or just eggs vs SPAM. It won’t be the same but it’ll still be tasty. It also freezes well. I put it in portioned containers and bring them to my daughter and son-in-law so they can eat them later as well. 5Below has a great sale on the containers btw
I just made this dish. It’s quite delicious. I grabbed my tablespoon instead of teaspoon when I added the sesame oil. I think with the right measurement, it’ll be even better.
Cool, simple and delicious as always. I just wish you would keep it more healthy...without that canned, packed and other artificial stuff like glutamate. Otherwise great. Thank you
Good recipe no Mirin or fish sauce but I used some rice vinegar and maple syrup 🤷🏿♂️ still came out good as a cook you must learn to substitute I also added peas and carrots and a yellow onion
I kid you not, I bought some spam yesterday because I wanted to try adding fried spam to your Japanese fried rice recipe. I've never had spam before, but you've sung its praises many times, so I wanted to, as Claire says, give it a try.
If you got a 12 oz can of SPAM, you should be able to try SEVERAL recipes! I love this stuff, but two slices is enough for me. Maybe even ONE slice if it's something like this, where the SPAM is an ingredient and the seasoning, too. Don't worry, it lasts a long time in the refrigerator. I wasn't born knowing about this, someone gave me a copy of the Hawaiian SPAM Cookbook, as a joke. I tried some of the simple recipes and became a fan. It really does go with rice!
@@AaronandClaire Just finished it. The whole thing came out great. The salty/savory spam was an excellent addition to the rice, eggs, and of course, green onions.
I don't like SPAM but it's that brand in particular I don't like. But I don't like ham in general. But I buy 2 other luncheon meats that I love. One is made only from pork. (SPAM is pork and ham) I might try this.
I love spam but I shouldn't eat it anymore. I still have a few cans in my cupboard but I was diagnosed with high cholesterol this year! I think it would still be ok if I only have it very rarely.
For a side dish? This is badass! Haven't tried spam until last year. Im 52. I immediately called my mother and asked her where in the hell thats been all my life?😂❤
Did you just Spam the internet Aaron? 😂 The recipe looks really easy. All the ingredients for the sauce are available at the many Asian supermarkets near me in Newcastle upon Tyne England. We call green onions 'spring onions' here. Tell Claire that I always wave back at her at the end of your videos. 😁
I actually made this last night, I use the hot and spicy, also with a bit of tocino flavor of spam, added frozen peas, carrots and corn into it, absolutely worth it👍❤️
Great video! I'm growing as a cook and expanding to add staples to my repertoire. Fried rice is the most recent addition. I ordered take out fried rice a few days ago and just made a variation of this recipe at home tonight. And I can tell you it was so much better than take out. I didn't have any green onion, so I just added some frozen peas and carrots. I'm going to add onion and garlic into my next batch as well. Marinating some pork in the fridge overnight RIGHT NOW!!!
The rice does seem a little dry. No wonder Claire suggested the kimchi, the juice from the kimchi would soften the rice a little. The egg could have been scrambled a little more but the spring onion & garlic is an excellent combo. I'm guessing Aaron suggested dunking the pieces of spam in hot water was to probably also remove some of the saltiness of the spam. Clever. I'd like my fried rice a little juicier. It did look a tad too dry. Also, Basmati is amazing for fried rice. Jasmine is perfect for juicy kimbap.❤
I had to laugh at the you've never had spam. Thinking back on how many times I had spam growing up. My mom's family is from Minnesota so yeah we had spam. Love your recipes! They are awesome!!!
Since I come from the spam capital of the world…Hawaii….we have no problem eating spam. But if people don’t want all the saltiness, there is spam now with less salt. I will try your sauce. Thanks Aaron!
my favorite fried rice, eaten it since I was a kid, you can fry the spam super crispy on the outside and it is still soft on the inside unlike ham.
I made almost the same thing last night but I added gochujang to the sauce. It was so good! If your salt sensitive, low sodium spam is the way to go.

My favorite fried rice! We use hot and spicy flavor spam. I put in some frozen peas and carrots for extra veg. I do use the oyster sauce
Fried rice with hot and spicy flavor spam! That sounds super delicious 👍
I just made this for dinner (doubled the spam and soaked up some of the fat with a paper towel in the pan) and it’s delicious!! Definitely making this again
I love the recipes but hearing Claire critique the meal is my favorite part. ❤
Yum! Spam and egg fried rice? Yes please!!😋
😍😍😍
Spam is very underrated in cooking you should really try it trust me😀 thx Aaron for another delicious recipe 😋😇
Trrrrrruuuust me! 🤣
You guys are just the best!🥰
YOU are the best. As always, thanks for watching! 😎👍
Been wondering what to do with my can of spam! Thanks, Aaron! Yum!
So happy to hear that! 😎

Haha. Dot is family 🤣
She just texted me. I’m feeling pretty d@ng ding dong dumb 😂
@@leonardpearlman4017
It helps to chop it, freeze it on a pan for a couple of hours then bag it and wrap it in foil to keep it from getting freezer burn. I store it in portion size for Spam Fried Rice. Keep the tips of the celery separate for soup.

Try the Garlic Fried Rice. Only Three ingredients, Garlic, Fried and Rice.
The staple fried rice here in the Philippines.
I only eat garlic fried rice but nothing else when I visit the Philippines 🤣
Ooh I’ve been working off one of your previous fried rice recipes! Definitely going to start making this one now :). Too bad we just finished eating our kimchi my girlfriend made from your book!
Thanks Aaron for giving the tip on getting rid of some saltiness and oil ... I am very salt sensitive. You both are the absolute best!!!
I love spam fried rice 🥰 I like bits of peppers in mine too, try it!
Great deliciously nice!
i believe in breaking rules. which link is the premade dry rice?
You can check this link! 👍

Aaron! My husband is finally asking for more Korean food (instead of just eating it because my menu is take it or leave it!). Can we get more soft tofu recipes?
I reckon I can veganize this easily enough. I'd used smoked tofu instead of spam and Ogg instead of egg.
That sounds delicious 👍
Gross
This was so good!!
I love making spam fried rice! 😋 It's quick and easy to make. 😊
Thank you I love it!
Claire is the best taste tester! She pays such attention to detail! ❤ thank you both 😊
They are a perfect match 💕
I absolutely agree!!! Love both parts of these videos - the cooking by Aaron and the eating and reviewing by Claire. Sooo goood!
I have not had spam since i was a kid, but i did have to laugh when you said cat food lol
🤣🤣🤣🙏
I didn’t realise you could still buy Spam!!!! The last time I ate it was in the 1970s 😂😂😂
You may not believe it but it’s popular! Is it just Korea? 🤣
What? There are new flavors now, different size packages, imitations... it takes up a lot of shelf-space in some stores! During the pandemic and other emergencies it gets sold out FAST! Might take months to recover the fully stocked shelves in the store.
It looks fantastic !
Thanks! Hope you give this a try! 😆
I will
it needs to be topped with kimchi!
Growing up, my grandma always made these luncheon meat and egg fried rice for us ...its our favorite comfort food ! ❤😋🤤
I make spam fried rice regularly. I haven't tried adding mirin, I will have to give it a try.
Looks good! Have you guys ever had spam and eggs before? It's delicious🤤
We LOVE it, too! 😍😍😍

This is the only way we Hawaii locals make fried rice...gatta have the Spam! 😁😁🥢🥢
For Europeans, Mirin can also be substituted with dry sherry or vermouth.
Spam is awesome. Strange stuff in your inbox. Even stranger out of the can. Lovely stuff that you'll never ever know about really..
I tried to view your website, but it seemed to be down.

whats your defination of EASY.. ?? if you have many ingredients to put🤣🤣🤣🤣

I love spam but I shouldn't eat it anymore. I still have a few cans in my cupboard but I was diagnosed with high cholesterol this year! I think it would still be ok if I only have it very rarely.
wow finally. someone gets it. fried rice with 1 egg? is this a mockery?
egg fried rice is supposed to have 7-8 eggs. not 1.
I cant find that rice in the bowl you showed here in London.
Can I use the Uncle Ben's microwave rice stuff?
For a side dish? This is badass! Haven't tried spam until last year. Im 52. I immediately called my mother and asked her where in the hell thats been all my life?😂❤
Would anyone happen to have a recommendation to make on what wok to use when trying to make these recipes? Thanks big fan!
Just another instant like.. 😘
Stay safe and greetz from Germany
Did you just Spam the internet Aaron? 😂

All the ingredients for the sauce are available at the many Asian supermarkets near me in Newcastle upon Tyne England. We call green onions 'spring onions' here.

I love spam, didn't know about spam until your videos 😊
Good pan, gas please!
I tried it today for dinner and kids loved it better than chicken with rice ! They are eating it as I type this 😂
Kimchi makes everything better. My favorite is radish kimchi with fried rice.
2 eggs per person minimum (sometimes 3) in my house! 😂
It looks delicious.
Can i substitute Mirin with rice vinegar or will it alter the flavour of the sauce too much?
I've tried spam, it's not very good. I like hot dogs in my fried rice ngl
Looks so good! What type/brand of wok are you using?
I love this but you know Uncle Roger will be here to judge.
I made this last night. It was delicious and very easy. Best fried rice I have made. Thx aaron
Awesome to hear it! 😁👍
Allergic to SPAM? Who the heck is allergic to SPAM
Looks so good, I doubt mine wouldn't taste as good as yours 😔
❤ Kim Chi, but not from plastic jars.

Spam is great. Very versatile for a breakfast protein as well. Try slicing it very thinly and frying it well-done. It's like bacon...kinda.
"dont worry baaut it" is my new mantra when i stress out. Not jk.
I love this i was surprised how delicious this was
