Equipment

  • Large frying pan or skillet
  • Sharp knife
  • Chopping board
  • Wooden spoon

Ingredients
 
 

  • 200 g spam 1 small tin
  • 45 g frozen peas
  • 375 g cooked rice 150g when uncooked
  • 80 g pineapple 2 rings
  • 1 egg
  • 80 g mushrooms 4 medium
  • 2 spring onions green onions

Instructions
 

  • Slice the spam and then cut into cubes about 1 centimetre or half an inch.
  • Cut the mushrooms and pineapple into even pieces and peel and slice the spring onions.
  • Add a teaspoon of oil to the frying pan over a medium heat.
  • Break the egg into the pan and stir while it cooks. Turn off the heat and transfer the egg to a bowl.
  • Wait until the pan has cooled and use a piece of kitchen towel to wipe the pan.
  • Add another teaspoon of oil to the pan over a medium heat.
  • Put the spam and mushrooms in the pan and cook, stirring occasionally until they are browned on all sides.
  • Transfer to the bowl with the egg.
  • Next, add the last teaspoon of oil over a medium heat.
  • Tip in the cold, cooked rice and spread the mixture out.
  • Cook for 2 minutes and then turn the rice. This helps to get those crispy bits in fried rice.
  • Lastly, add the bowl containing the egg, mushrooms and spam and tip in the pineapple, spring onions and peas.
  • Stir gently for a few minutes until the mixture is hot.
  • Season and serve with some soy sauce or sweet chilli sauce.
