Cheesy Spam and Rice Casserole is super affordable and easy to make at home.
You only need day-old rice, spam, ketchup, tomato, onion, cheese, and soy sauce. There are a few secret steps that my dad does that make this cheesy spam and rice casserole extra special!
- First, pan-fries the spam until it becomes crispy. This simple step will add great texture to the dish.
- Second, use the leftover oil rendered from the spam to pan-fry the tomato and onion, this will add tons of flavor to the dish.
- Third, make sure to ALWAYS use day-old rice. This way, the rice will soak up all the delicious sauce from the rice, which makes it extra creamy and flavourful.
