- 3/4 cup grated carrots

Directions
- In a medium bowl, whisk the egg.

- In a large saucepan, heat oil to 375°F.
- Dip one side of a nori sheet in the batter mixture.
- Carefully fry the nori sheet in hot oil, batter side first, for 1 to 2 minutes, then flipping to fry the other side until crisp and curled.
- Remove the nori from the oil to a paper towel-lined sheet pan, forming it into a taco shell as it cools.
- Repeat to make 8 taco shells.
- In a large skillet, cook the diced SPAM® Classic over medium-high heat for 3 to 5 minutes, or until browned.
