Well, today Auntie Lilly would like to share a 'Home Tested & Approved' recipe on the blog. I finally found this homemade version recipe that's far healthier without MSG, preservatives and artificial colourings at all. On top of this, you can also adjust the saltiness to your liking.

Taste-wise is pretty close to the canned luncheon meat while texture-wise, it's more firm and may not be as smooth like those canned ones. Nevertheless, appearance-wise the meat resembles almost like the 'real one' but do not expect it to taste exactly like those processed canned luncheon meat imported from China.

I was inspired by my dear good friend of mine - Ruth Wong's cooking as she has been enjoying this gorgeous porky-licious luncheon meat while I drool over her IG posting all the time. My avid cook friend has shared this easy to prepare recipe with me, prompting me to try it too.

Auntie Lilly believe once you tried this recipe, you may not buy those expensive 'SPAM' since you're able to make this healthy preservative and flavouring free version at home for your family! Oh yes, credits go to Miki's Food Archives for sharing her wonderful recipe Recipe Luncheon Meat with us too.

To Cook

Grease a container with oil
Spoon in a few tablespoons of minced meat at a time while pressing it as tight as possible.
Continue this process each time levelling the surface to remove air bubbles trapped inside.
Make sure the meat is as compact as possible before cooking.
Use aluminium foil to cover the container as tight as possible.
If possible, place a plate with something heavy on top of the container to compact the meat while steaming.
Steam under medium heat for 30 - 35 minutes till cooked.
Slice when it has completely cooled down.
