Reviews
It was outstanding! I added fresh broccoli towards the end! I’ll make it again and again!
Awesome. Tasted as if I was in an oriental restaurant. the only change I made was to use 2 thinly sliced green onion, we like onion.
A little bland but not bad. I used some of the salted pasta water so that helped. It’s an easy recipe and it doesn’t take a lot of ingredients. I’ll be making this again.
used ginger oil instead of sesame. it reminded me college days when we used .10 ramen packs instead of spaghetti and sometimes tuna replaced spam.
I made this and it was delicious. I adjusted a little the amount of oil and added frozen broccoli to give it a little twist. It was on point
I never had Spam before making this the first time but hubby likes it. This time, I am using Teriyaki Spam. It is a little salty for my palette but also addictive. I usually add some fresh mushrooms h lots of garlic!
Great spam recipe for beginners like myself!
I love Spam. I love pasta. But this is a mistake!
Made this tonight for my family and it was very simple and delicious. I left out the vegetable oil and water. I used one whole can of spam and cubed it. Then I fried it with three cloves of garlic. About 5 min after I threw in some 1/3 of a cabbage head and two green onions. I sautéed this all for about 3 min and then added the pasta, sesame oil, soy sauce and black pepper. I think next time when I get to the step to put in my pasta I will put a little butter in it to soften up the pasta a little bit more. Other than that this dish was good. I will make again definitely!
I did purple onions instead of green and olive oil instead of the sesame oil.
Excellent recipe, thanks! I love Bacon Spam for this. It is incredible. You really don’t need oil in this recipe but sesame oil gives excellent flavor. If you cook the Spam first you can fry your veg in the oil it leaves in the pan. I drain most of the oil off the cooked Spam on paper towels. Also, mush it up with your ground pork and veg to make potstickers (gyoza).
Very good!! I added spinach to the recipe and it was delicious.
Next time I’m add some vegetables
This was really good! We liked it so much I will have to double the recipe next time I make it!
I had leftover cooked white rice and the weather is just too hot here to be boiling a pot of water for pasta! 🙂 The combo of soy sauce, garlic and sesame oil flavors worked well with the Spam. I also added some chopped broccoli to make it more stir-fry-like and add some healthy green.
This was an amazingly simple throw together meal that my 3 sons all loved. It’s quick on those nights that you need to get them fed and out of the house. I do suggest the reduced sodium spam however. Keeper in this family!
This was surprisingly good and fast to make. Next time I would just add more water/soy sauce/sesame.
I just made this recipe and my 3yr and 7yr and wife and I ate it up. It’s easy it’s delicious and cheap. I’m going to work more with spam. This is a good first time recipe foe 1st timers to spam.
This was salty to me. I will make this again but using less soy sauce. The egg was just ok and next time I may exclude it. I also made a double batch to feed everyone and my kids didn’t appreciate it. I liked it and will make it just for me. I love spam.
It was great, will definitely make it again. I do agree with other reviews that it is a little oily, next time will omit the vegetable oil.
Very good, but I did have to play around with lots of other spices to make it POP with flavor.
