Main Ingredients- 4 fresh eggs
- 4 slices of premium Spam (approx. 1cm thick)
- 4 strips of soft tofu (similar thickness to Spam)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Cut the Spam into bite-sized strips lengthwise. Briefly blanch the cut Spam in boiling water to remove excess oil and impurities. This step ensures a cleaner taste.
Step 2
Slice the tofu into strips of similar length and thickness as the Spam. (Tip: For a chewier texture and richer flavor, you can pan-fry the tofu strips until golden brown before using them.)
Step 3
Crack the 4 eggs into a bowl and whisk them thoroughly. For a smoother omelet, you can strain the egg mixture through a sieve. Your simple yet fantastic ingredient prep is now complete!
Step 4
Lightly oil a heated pan and wipe it with a paper towel to create a thin, even coating. (This prevents the egg from sticking.) Pour about 1/3 of the beaten egg mixture into the pan and cook over low heat until it’s halfway set. (No extra seasoning is needed as the Spam and tofu provide sufficient saltiness.)
Step 5
Once the egg layer is semi-cooked, arrange the sliced tofu and Spam strips in an alternating pattern. Carefully roll the omelet, shaping it as you go. Pour in half of the remaining egg mixture, ensuring it covers the filling completely, and roll again. (Tip: Pouring the egg mixture all the way to the edge of the filling is crucial for a well-sealed roll that won’t unravel.)
Step 6
Pour the rest of the egg mixture over the rolled omelet and roll it once more to incorporate the remaining egg. Turn off the heat, cover the pan, and let it steam for a few minutes to set the shape and ensure even cooking.
Step 7
Allow the rolled omelet to cool slightly before slicing it into bite-sized pieces (about 1.5-2cm thick). Your delicious and visually appealing Spam and Tofu Rolled Omelet is ready to be served as a lunchbox side or a tasty snack!
