Description

There are a few tips to making the dish. To begin with, I use basmati rice as I like the texture and taste, but any type of rice can be used. The recipe calls for spam light, but you can use the regular spam if so desired. If you are a garlic lover, add more. If you are a pepper lover, go ahead and add it. I use frozen veggies with a mixture of corn, etc. but any type of veggie can be used.

It is interesting to note that spam was an old world war 2 staple and is still considered a meal for the wealthy in many Asian countries due to the influence of the war. Its nutritional value has been disputed in other parts of the globe, however.

Give our spam fried rice a try and, as always, let us know what you think.
