Cheese baked rice with luncheon meat recipe

Using items that you probably already have in your kitchen, you can easily make this meal without having to leave your house for additional groceries. And here’s the best part: you don’t have to turn on the stove and stand there to cook at all! You can just leave it in the oven while you do some work or watch your favourite Korean dramas.

Ingredients needed (serves two)

Here’s what you’ll need:

Instructions

Step 1: Empty out two luncheon meat cans and wash them clean. Set them aside for the time being. If you’re not comfortable with using the cans due to health concerns over placing them in the oven later, you can also use disposable rectangular aluminium tins that are oven-safe.

Step 2: Cut two thick slices of luncheon meat as seen in the photo below. The two slices will be what you’re going to use, so you can keep the rest in the fridge.

Step 3: Place the two slices of luncheon meat and two bowls of rice in a huge ziploc bag.

Step 5: Seal the ziploc bag tightly and start mixing everything together until it’s even. You can do so by just mashing the ingredients with your hands.

Step 6: Scoop the mixture into the empty cans or aluminium tins you set aside earlier. Be sure to leave a bit of space at the top after you’ve smoothened the rice out.
