I can admit it.... I LOVE SPAM! I think it was a combination of being in Scouts and basically only eating SPAM sandwiches at Grandad's growing up that were the catalysts for my love for the canned culinary icon. Of course, if you're going to eat SPAM there's no point eating it with salad or such other healthy things so years of living out of home and having to cook for myself has led me to perfecting my own SPAM sandwich.
My family, friends and co-workers think I'm nuts but I love this sandwich!! My ex-girlfriend even sent off the two labels and postage fee to Hormel Foods so I could have the T-shirt and show my appreciation for SPAM. Even if you think it's not fit for animal consumption yet alone humans, check out the official SPAM website for a good laugh.
Now here is the sandwich.
Ingredients
1/3 block of standard sized SPAM - my preferred flavour is the Tabasco infused Hot and Spicy SPAM
1 egg
2 slices of Tasty or Chedder Cheese - the best is Kraft Singles as they melt nicely
Sweet Chili Sauce
American Mustard
2 slices of bread
How to make
- "Butter" one slice of bread with sweet chili sauce, the other with American mustard
- Place the cheese on each slice of bread
- Cut two slices of SPAM approximately 8mm thick and place in a hot flying pan with a little bit of oil. Cook until slightly brown
- Place the SPAM slices on the American mustard bread on top of the cheese
- Fry up an egg ensuring that the yoke is runny
- Place the egg on top of the SPAM
- Place the other slice of bread on top of the egg and squash!
- Cut sandwich in half and enjoy!!
Seriously how good does that look!! YUM
