Pineapple fried rice is a vibrant, tropical dish that balances sweet, savory, and tangy flavors. Here’s a step-by-step guide to mastering it.

Ingredients:

- 2 cups cooked rice (preferably day-old, for less moisture)

- 1 cup diced fresh pineapple

- 100g cooked pork or chicken, shredded

- 1/2 cup mixed veggies (carrots, bell peppers, peas)

- 2 eggs, beaten

- 2 tbsp soy sauce

- 1 tbsp oyster sauce

- 1 tsp sesame oil

- Salt and pepper to taste

- Cooking oil

Instructions:

1. Prep Ingredients: Dice pineapple, meat, and veggies. Ensure rice is dry—spread it on a plate to cool if needed.

2. Cook Eggs: Heat oil in a wok, scramble eggs until set, then remove.

3. Stir-Fry Meat & Veggies: Add more oil, stir-fry meat until golden, then toss in veggies for 2-3 minutes.

4. Combine Rice: Add rice to the wok, breaking clumps. Drizzle with soy sauce and oyster sauce, mixing well.

5. Add Pineapple & Eggs: Return eggs to the wok, fold in pineapple, and cook for 1 minute.

6. Finish & Serve: Drizzle sesame oil, season with salt and pepper. Garnish with pineapple leaves or toasted cashews.

Tips: For extra flavor, use pineapple juice instead of water to cook rice. Adjust sauces to your taste—add a pinch of chili flakes for heat. Serve hot for the best texture!
