NAMASTE 🙏
Can’t skip a rice recipe that turned out to be amazing ! Pineapple in your kitchen is not just a fruit used to make sweet dishes or fruit yogurt or drinks it brings verity of uses like for example many people like pineapple in pizza. This recipe is inspired from Thai pineapple fried rice. It’s a fussion of Thai and Chinese fried rice recipes resulting in indo-chinese flavor. This recipe is complete in itself with very limited vegetable and sauce.
I am very much fond of rice. In this recipe the pineapple I used was very sweet so the rice turned out to be sweet, spicy and tangy all in one without loosing their own property. This can be achieved only if the rice is cold, you can choose your own way to cool the rice like keep the cooked rice in a plate and refrigerate for 2 hr or until cool completely or give ice water bath to rice, make sure to drain all excess water. Hot rice or fresh cooked rise tends to absorb more moisture when cooked further while frying, resulting over cooking of rice and also hampering all the individual flavors.
