Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Slice spam into 1/4-inch cubes. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook spam until edges crisp, ~5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  2. Step 2

    Push spam to the side. Pour beaten eggs into the empty space and scramble until just set, ~2 minutes, then toss together with the spam.

  3. Step 3

    Add cold rice, breaking up clumps as you stir. Cook for 3 minutes until grains separate and start to toast lightly.

  4. Step 4

    Stir in pineapple chunks and soy sauce. Toss until pineapple is warm and everything is evenly coated, ~2 minutes.

  5. Step 5

    Cut cucumber into sticks, halve tomatoes, slice green onions into 2-inch pieces.

  6. Step 6

    Transfer fried rice to plates or a serving bowl. Drizzle chili fish sauce over the top and arrange cucumber sticks, tomatoes, and green onions on the side.
