Ingredients- 1 can Spam (340g)

- 1/3 zucchini
- 1 king oyster mushroom
- 1 handful mozzarella cheese (approx. 50g)
- Parsley flakes, to taste
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, gather your star ingredient: Spam, and the processed cheese slices to add extra flavor. Spam, being HACCP certified, is a safe and delicious choice, making it a must-have for many home cooks, especially those living alone.
Step 2
Divide your cheddar or low-sodium processed cheese slices into 6 pieces each. This makes them easy to handle and fit into the Spam. Feel free to use your favorite type of cheese!
Step 3
Prepare the vegetables: thinly slice 1/3 of a zucchini into approximately 0.3cm thick rounds. Slice one king oyster mushroom to a similar thickness of about 0.3cm. Slicing them thinly ensures they cook through nicely along with the Spam.
Step 4
Here’s a handy trick for cutting the Spam evenly! Use the Spam can lid. Invert the lid and place it on top of the Spam. Then, slice the Spam down to the depth of the lid, aiming for about 0.5cm thickness. This method helps you make clean, uniform cuts without cutting all the way through. Repeat on the other side after removing the lid.
Step 5
Carefully tuck a slice of processed cheese into each cut in the Spam. As the cheese melts, it will meld beautifully with the Spam, creating a rich and savory experience.
Step 6
Now, fill the gaps between the Spam and cheese with the sliced zucchini and king oyster mushrooms. Alternate the vegetables as you fill them in. The vegetables add a lovely texture and help balance the richness of the Spam.
Step 7
Place the prepared Spam into your air fryer basket. Be mindful not to overcrowd the basket, as the Spam might shrink slightly when cooked.
Step 8
Time for the grand finale topping! Generously sprinkle mozzarella cheese over the Spam. The melted mozzarella will create a gooey, delicious blanket that enhances both the appearance and taste. Finish with a light dusting of parsley flakes for a touch of freshness and color.
Step 9
Air fry at 160°C (320°F) for about 12-15 minutes, or bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (356°F) for about 10 minutes. Cook until the cheese is golden brown and bubbly, and the Spam is heated through.
Step 10
(Optional) For an extra touch of elegance, sprinkle some shredded ‘snow cheese’ (or more finely shredded mozzarella) on top just before serving. It creates a stunning visual effect, making your dish look truly special.
Step 11
And there you have it! Your easy and delicious Cheesy Spam Roast, or Spam Barbecue, is ready to be enjoyed at home. Perfect with a cold beer, this impressive dish is simple to make and guaranteed to delight everyone. Cheers! ^^
