How to Make Three-Color Soboro Rice Bowl
This three-color soboro rice bowl is made with just three main ingredients. It’s a visually appealing and tasty dish.
Main Ingredients
- 100g Spam (or ground pork/beef)
- 1/2 cucumber (or green onions)
- 2 eggs
- 1 piece butter
- 1 bowl of warm rice
- 1 Tbsp cooking oil
- 1/2 tsp salt
Seasoning
- 1 tsp soy sauce
- 1 tsp minced garlic
- 1 tsp sugar
- 1 tsp soy sauce
- 1 tsp minced garlic
- 1 tsp sugar
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare your ingredients. You can substitute Spam with ground pork or beef, and green onions can be used instead of cucumber for a different flavor profile. For the cucumber, remove the seeds to reduce moisture. Crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk them lightly.
Step 2
Place the Spam in a resealable bag and mash it gently with your hands, or dice it into small pieces. For the cucumber, carefully scoop out the seeds with a knife to prevent excess water from making the dish soggy. Whisk the eggs until smooth.
Step 3
Slice the seeded cucumber into thin julienne strips. Sprinkle 1/2 tsp of salt over the cucumber strips and let them sit for about 5 minutes to draw out moisture. Rinse the salted cucumber lightly under cold water and squeeze out any excess moisture to maintain a crisp texture. For a smoother scrambled egg, strain the whisked eggs through a fine-mesh sieve.
Step 4
Melt 1 piece of butter in a pan over medium-low heat. Pour in the whisked eggs. As the edges begin to set, gently stir and break up the eggs with a spatula or chopsticks to create scrambled eggs. Cook until just set. Remove the scrambled eggs from the pan. Add 1 Tbsp of cooking oil to the same pan and sauté the mashed or diced Spam until golden brown.
Step 5
Add 1 tsp of minced garlic and 1 tsp of sugar to the pan with the Spam. Stir-fry to combine and enhance the flavor. Finally, pour 1 tsp of soy sauce around the edges of the pan and let it sizzle for a moment before mixing it into the Spam. Stir-fry everything together until well combined.
Step 6
All components are now ready! Rinse the salted cucumber and squeeze out all the water. Arrange the cooked Spam, fluffy scrambled eggs, and crisp cucumber over a bowl of warm rice. This completes your colorful and delicious Three-Color Soboro Rice Bowl. Enjoy your meal!
