One kitchen hack that saves me plenty of time during dinnertime is making a big batch of steamed rice once or twice a week. I cool down the cooked rice completely, divide it into resealable bags, and freeze it so on days when I am too busy or too lazy to prepare a complicated meal, I just thaw a bag to stir-fry into a delicious and filling fried rice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you're looking for delicious ways to revamp day-old rice, you've come to the right place as I have tons of fried rice recipes I hope you try such as house special<\/a>, nasi goreng<\/a>, yang chow<\/a>, and this pineapple fried rice which happens to be my fave.<\/p>\n\n\n

What is pineapple fried rice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Pineapple fried rice is a Thai dish made of pre-cooked rice, juicy pineapples, chicken, pork, crab meat, or shrimp, and other add-ins such as green peas, sweet peppers, cashews, and raisins. It's seasoned with curry powder and fish sauce for a delightful medley of sweet and savory tastes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While it's usually presented in hollowed pineapples, this is optional. If you want to skip carving the fruit, canned pineapples will work just fine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Having said that, if you do have a few minutes to spare and don't mind a little bit more mess, I urge you to take that extra step. There is just something about using fresh fruit chunks and serving the fried rice in a pineapple boat that makes it that more special.<\/p>\n\n\n
