- 2 eggs lightly beaten
- 15g unsalted butter
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 4 shallots thinly sliced
- 1 finger-length red chilli de-seeded & sliced thinly
- half can (170g) spam (luncheon meat) cubed

Very appetizing and moreish! I just bought a jar of sambal sauce too. Might make some with quinoa soon :-) Thanks for the inspiring recipe!
Always love the kick of sambal to spice up my spam fried rice
Love your spicy rendition on spam fried rice! :)
There’s 15g unsalted butter in your ingredient list. Is it used as a substitute for cooking oil?
The butter is in addition to the oil. But you can skip the butter and add a bit more oil if you don’t have butter.
