Do you have any good recipes for Spam?

My grandfather hates Spam, he first saw it in WWII and said he didn't know what was worse, the violece to people or the violence to food. (Yes, he was joking, but he really hates Spam). His birthday is coming up and we want to make him a Spam cookbook. Any ideas?

    dice 2 medium sized onions, cut up 3 cloves of garlic and put them in a skillet with olive oil on low heat until they are transparent.

    slice the can of Spam into thin slices.

    when the onions and garlic are transparent, take them off the skillet, but leave the oil in the pan.

    add the Spam slices

    turn up the heat a little and cook until brown

    serve with onions and garlic, if you like

    serve with a cheap red wine.

    Ah Spam erm well off the top of my head the good old spam fritter comes to mind

    spam sliced

    250g of flour

    1-2 eggs

    pinch of salt

    100 - 200ml of full fat milk

    vinegar/lemon juice/brown sauce etc for taste

    This is off the top of my head so meh might need some adjustment

    sift flour in a mixing bowl make a well in the center add salt and beat in the eggs and a little milk then the flavour (wouchester sauce is nice) add more egg if the consistency is not runny enough (needs to be thick but runny enough to coat the slices of spam) when the batters right for you (thinner = crispy, thick = stodgy I like it stodgy) Coat the spam with the mixture deep fry it until golden

    you can use any batter recipe for this but this is the only one I remember off the bat

    also you can make spam pate

    spam

    lemon juice

    breadcrumb

    a blender

    cut the spam into cubes blend with lemon juice and add the breadcrumbs to get the right consistancy (you can add onion or herbs to the pate if you like)

    Well, I love Spam and have a couple of favorite recipes - but it would be hard to give them to you, if you aren't really going to try them. Deeelicious!

    OK - I changed my mind. Spam & Egg Sandwich Supreme:

    Fry two slices of Spam, set aside.

    Fry an egg, set aside.

    Butter two slices of bread, place one, buttered side down ,in medium hot skillet. Top with the fried egg, then the Spam. Add a seeded medium hot salad pepper, and a slice of cheese. Top with the other buttered slice of bread. Grill it until toasted, flip over with spatula and grill other side, like a grilled cheese sandwich. After cooking - open sandwich and spread with mayo, add salt and pepper.

    Spread a kaiser roll with Kraft Sandwich Spread.

    Add a 1/4" slice of Spam, a slice of mild white onion, and 1/4" thick slice of velveeta cheese loaf. Wrap each sandwich individually in foil, and heat in a 350 degree oven approx. 15 minutes. Check for 'doneness'- Cheese should be melted, and onion should be slightly soft.

    My husband introduced me to this recipe, it's been in his family for years:

    Cube a whole can of Spam along with some finely chopped pepper or jalapeno, saute in a pan until slightly browned, add 2 cans of tomato paste and about 1/2 cup of water, stir well.

    Serve over white rice. It's pretty good. (The rest of the family eats it with sliced bananas in it but I opt not to add that ingredient....)
