Spam fried rice with seaweed is a must-try if you want to explore something beyond traditional savory fried rice. It has a strong seaweed aroma and a faint, sweet taste. Eggs, spam, and seaweed can be so good with fried rice.
Seaweed has a crisp texture and a light ocean aroma. It can also be a good decoration for fried rice, adding a lovely dark color. I am using Korean-style dried seaweed.
As a big fried rice lover, I am a big fan of basic Chinese-style fried rice like the egg fried rice, Beef fried rice, golden fried rice and pork belly fried rice.
What to serve with
It has a lovely crispy texture and a sweet and savory taste. I love to match it with light Chinese soup like tomato and egg drop soup or an easy salad- cucumber salad.
Another choice is to match it with a cup of bubble tea, which is my daughter’s favorite.
