How to Make Potato Spam Skillet Wimpy Fries
- Peel and cut 2 lbs potatoes into 1/2-inch thick fries.
- Soak the potatoes in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch.
- Drain the potatoes and pat them completely dry with paper towels.
- Heat 1/2 cup vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the potatoes to the skillet and fry, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy (about 15-20 minutes).
- Remove the potatoes from the skillet and set aside.
- Add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the skillet. Add 1 (12 ounce) can of Spam, diced, and cook until browned.
- Stir in 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese and 1/4 cup chopped green onions until melted and combined.
- Add the cooked potatoes back to the skillet, tossing gently to coat with the Spam and cheese mixture.
- Optional: Stir in 2 tablespoons of mild jalapeño sauce.
- Serve immediately. Garnish with extra green onions and a fried egg (optional).
