apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

we make this with spam, peas, and carrots. recipe courtesy of our good friend's filipina mum. we don't have the metabolism to eat it often, but we do enjoy it.

I used to eat this as a kid but with ketchup.

It smells like Saturday mornings when I was a kid. It would keep me full for the rest of the day.

Exactly! Reminds me of mornings at home before school.... garlic friend rice (especially fried in bacon grease... drool...) happy to a a little Pinoy touch on here, lol. As usual, awesome job Kitchn!

Yum, rice with Fried eggs and spam! Or you could make Spam musubi (like a spam sushi - from hawaii).

I'm a huge fan of the "sinangag" (that's what Filipinos call this rice dish) and I'm so happy it found it's way here. The rice and eggs are commonly paired with various meats. My favorites are "tapa" (salt-cured beef which resembles beef jerky) and "tocino" (cured pork on the sweet side). Yummy. I think I'll have some for dinner; luckily, eateries here in the Philippines offer these meals all-day. :)

That's a cute graphic, considering you weren't able to photograph the actual meal. I could totally picture myself eating this, drowned in sriracha, on a hung over Sunday morning.

My mom (a Filipina) made this growing up. A variation using the leftover rice, garlic and egg combo is also adding some tomatoes and onion to the stir fry. Sprinkle a bit of soy sauce at the end.

Thanks for adding this little recipe :)
