Pineapple fried rice is a Thai style fried rice made out of rice with pineapples and prawns, you might find it weird but if you had tasted Thai dishes then you would say that this would make sense as it follows the basic principle of Thai dishes which is the right balance of hot, sweet, sour and salty flavours. That’s why in this dish we have chillies for hot, sweet and sour for pineapples and salty for fish sauce.
Are you up for it? well try it out it’s not just a good balance of great flavours it’s also and all in one meal.
