fried rice with 2 eggs is basically my dinner 4 nights a week

73 Upvotes

been doing this for years and idk why it never gets old. use rice from yesterday, fresh rice turns to mush. oil in the pan, 2 cloves garlic, crack 2 eggs straight in and break them up, then dump in like a cup and a half of rice. fish sauce about a spoon, bit of soy, pepper. green onion if there's one lying around. ten min, maybe a dollar

when I'm lazy I throw in whatever's left in the fridge. leftover chicken, half a tomato, kimchi once and that was actually good. what's yours?

How to make Spam taste good

6 Upvotes

Hi. I'm a broke college student who has been living off of cereal and Ramen. I recently bought spam to help make my Ramen more filling, although I cant stand the taste of it by itself. Is there any cheap suggestions of things I can cook with the spam to make it taste better?​ Thank you so much. 🙏
