Ingredients

• 340 grams Spam (original or low-sodium)
• 1 medium Red bell pepper
• 4 spears Pickles (dill or sweet, as preferred)
• 1 small Red onion
• 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
• 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon Mustard seeds
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Dice the Spam into small cubes, approximately 1/4 inch in size. Set aside.

Step 2

Finely dice the red bell pepper, pickles, and red onion. Try to keep the sizes consistent for a uniform texture.

Step 3

Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.

Step 4

Once the oil is hot, add the diced Spam to the skillet. Cook for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the Spam is golden and crispy on the edges.

Step 5

Add the diced red bell pepper and red onion to the skillet. Sauté for 2–3 minutes until the vegetables soften slightly.

Step 6

Stir in the pickles, apple cider vinegar, granulated sugar, mustard seeds, salt, and black pepper.

Step 7

Reduce the heat to low and cook for another 2 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

Step 8

Remove the skillet from the heat and let the relish cool to room temperature.

Step 9

Serve the Spam relish immediately as a topping, or transfer it to an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3 days for later use.
