Assuming you're asking about the combo of potato, onion and spam:
- Microwave the potato until almost done then cube it
I often leave it in too long and it's fully cooked but
that's ok. Cubing it then, it will tend to fall apart
some but that's ok too.
- then put cubed potato, raw choppen onion, and
Spam right from the can into a frying pan with a
little oil and butter and brown it all stirring
once or twice but do let it sit cooking long too.
The applesauce on the side is a good compliment.
Also a juicy fried egg on top would be good.
For the microwaved "chunky mashed potato" only,
Just microwave it until done but in 2-3 steps.
Cook for a couple of minutes, let it sit for 4 minutes
then flip over and microwave again. If a large potato,
you might have to do that a 3rd time.
Then cross cut it using a knife and spoon, turn the bowl
sideways and cross cut again with some butter and S&P.
Do this turning and cutting a few times until texture
is how you want it and butter and S&P is mixed in.
Again, applesauce on the side and a juicy egg
on top is a good thing.
