Slice the ham nice and thin, then cube it into small pieces.

Cut 1/4 of an onion into small pieces.

Dice a small bunch of cilantro.

Add a little bit of vegetable oil to the pan and add the cubed ham, cooking for about 2-3 minutes until it starts releasing juices and browning.

Continue cooking the ham for another 3-4 minutes until it reaches desired crispiness.

Add rinsed and washed rice to the pan and incorporate it with the ham.

Add corn and onion to the rice and mix well.

Stir in 1 tablespoon of chicken buan and 4 cups of boiling water.

Add cilantro on top, cover the pan, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook for 10-15 minutes.

After cooking, let the rice rest for 2-3 minutes before plating.
