Category: proteins Tags: #rice-cooker #weeknight #low-mess #high-protein Version: v0.1 Created: 2026-01-09 Servings: 1 Prep time: 2 min Cook time: 10 min (assumes rice is ready) Tools: rice cooker (for rice), nonstick skillet

Goal / Why this exists

Zero-thought, high-protein comfort food. Crispy spam, runny egg, hot rice, sriracha. Ready in 10 minutes if rice is already made. Perfect for “I don’t want to think” nights.

Ingredients

Main

  • 150–200 g cooked rice (from rice cooker)
  • 85 g spam (about 3 slices, ~1cm thick)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 10 g butter or neutral oil

Sauce/Toppings

  • Sriracha or Kewpie mayo (to taste)
  • Soy sauce (splash)
  • Furikake (optional)
  • Sliced scallions (optional)
  • Toasted sesame seeds (optional)

Method

  1. Heat skillet: Medium-high heat, add half the butter/oil.
  2. Fry spam: Add spam slices in single layer. Cook 2–3 min per side until crispy and caramelized. Remove to plate.
  3. Fry eggs: Add remaining butter to pan. Crack eggs, fry to your preference (runny yolk recommended). Season with pinch of salt and pepper.
  4. Assemble bowl: Hot rice in bowl. Arrange spam slices on one side, eggs on top.
  5. Finish: Drizzle with sriracha and/or soy sauce. Top with furikake, scallions, sesame seeds if using.

Success Criteria

  • Spam is crispy on edges, caramelized (not soft/steamed)
  • Egg yolk is runny (breaks over rice)
  • Rice is hot

Variations

  • Loco moco style: Add hamburger patty and brown gravy
  • Breakfast version: Add a drizzle of maple syrup on the spam
  • Korean twist: Top with kimchi and gochujang instead of sriracha
  • Extra protein: Use 3 eggs instead of 2

Storage & Reheat

  • Best made fresh — eggs don’t reheat well
  • Spam can be pre-sliced and stored; fry fresh when needed
  • Batch-cook rice ahead of time
