Directions
In a large sauté or saucier pan, heat two tbsp of neutral oil to a shimmer. Add onions and ginger. Sauté until fragrant, approximately 3 minutes. Add baby corn and Bok choy to the skillet and continue to sauté for an additional 3 minutes.
Add soy sauce, fish sauce, and 3 tbsp of Maui Wowee. Stir to combine and cook over medium high heat for 2-3 minutes.
Add coconut milk and curry paste. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and let simmer for 10 minutes.
While curry is simmering, in a medium large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of neutral oil to a shimmer. Sear spam on all sides. Remove from skillet and set aside. In the same pan over medium high heat, sear pineapple slices for approximately 2 minutes per side.
Add sweet peppers, snow peas, half the spam, and half the pineapple to the curry.
Simmer for five minutes. Serve with white rice and top with remaining pineapple and spam.

Recipe Note
This curry is honestly better with even more pineapple and Maui Wowee. Don't hold back on fresh pineapple. Searing the spam and saving some to top the dish at the end is a must. You can make this vegetarian, or with shrimp. The world is your oyster. I am Moanaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
