Introducing a magical cheesy egg rice recipe that you can whip up in just 10 minutes, perfect for busy mornings or quick dinners. It’s simple, satisfying, and nutritious, making it a family favorite.
Key Ingredients- 2 bowls of warm cooked rice
- 2 fresh eggs
- 1 can of Spam (or your preferred ham), finely diced
- 1 Tbsp minced green onion (adjust to taste)
- 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 slice of cheddar cheese, finely chopped
- 1/2 cup of water, for a softer texture
- 2 tsp soy sauce, for savory depth
- A pinch of salt, to taste
- A dash of black pepper, for a hint of spice
- A sprinkle of dried parsley, for garnish (optional)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Prepare a microwave-safe, sturdy heatproof bowl. Crack 2 fresh eggs into the bowl. Add 1/2 cup of water for a smoother consistency, 2 tsp of soy sauce for a savory kick, and a pinch of salt and a dash of black pepper. Whisk gently with a fork until well combined to create your egg mixture.
Step 2
To the egg mixture, add 2 bowls of warm cooked rice, the finely diced Spam, and the minced green onion. Gently mix everything together until all ingredients are evenly distributed. Be careful not to mash the rice grains; stir lightly to keep the rice fluffy.
Step 3
Cover the bowl tightly with microwave-safe plastic wrap. To allow steam to escape and ensure even cooking, poke a few small holes in the wrap using a toothpick or fork. Place the bowl in the microwave and cook for about 3 minutes. (Cooking time may vary depending on your microwave’s wattage.)
Step 4
Carefully remove the bowl from the microwave after the first cooking stage. Gently stir the egg and rice mixture again with a spoon. This step helps to create a fluffier and more moist texture. Now, evenly sprinkle 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese and the chopped cheddar cheese over the top. Return the bowl to the microwave and cook for another 3 minutes, or until the cheese is completely melted and bubbly.
Step 5
Finally, garnish your cheesy egg rice with a sprinkle of dried parsley for a touch of color and aroma. Serve immediately while warm to enjoy the delightful combination of stretchy cheese, fluffy egg, and savory Spam! It’s a simple yet wonderfully satisfying meal.
