Yield 3 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 tablespoons sesame oil, divided
1 cup Sam's Choice® Premium Spiral-Cut Ham, chopped
2 large eggs, beaten
4 green onions, chopped on the bias, divided
1 cup bais-cut snap peas
1 large carrot, diced
3 cups white rice, or brown rice (using pre-packaged rice)
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped
3 tablespoons sesame seeds
null, for drizzling

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tablespoons of sesame oil in a large, high-walled skillet over medium heat. Add the Sam's Choice® Premium Spiral-Cut Ham and fry until warmed through and browned, about 3-4 minutes. Transfer the ham to a medium bowl and set aside.
  • Add another 2 tablespoons of sesame oil to the pan, then add the beaten eggs. Cook, stirring, for 1-2 minutes, until the eggs are soft-scrambled. Add to the bowl with the ham and set aside.
  • Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of sesame oil to the pan, then add all but 2 tablespoons of the green onions, the snap peas, and the carrot. And cook for 4-5 minutes, until the vegetables are just tender. Remove the pan from the heat.
  • Add the rice, ham, and egg to the pan with the vegetables and stir to combine. Add the soy sauce and stir to evenly distribute.
  • Serve the fried rice topped with the cilantro, sesame seeds, reserved green onions, and Sriracha, if desired.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use day-old rice. This will help the rice stay separate and fluffy when fried.
  • Chop your vegetables into small, even pieces. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the wok or skillet. This will prevent the rice from cooking evenly.
  • Use a high heat setting. This will help the rice get crispy.
  • Stir the rice constantly. This will help prevent it from sticking to the wok or skillet.
  • Add the sauce and eggs towards the end of cooking. This will help prevent the eggs from overcooking.
  • Serve immediately. Ham fried rice is best when served hot and fresh.

Conclusion:

Ham fried rice is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a quick meal. It is a great way to use up leftover rice and ham, and it can be easily customized to your liking. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can have a delicious and satisfying meal that the whole family will enjoy.
