Notes

  • Prep your ingredients in advance: Dice your pineapple, bell pepper, onion, and spring onion ahead of time. This will make the cooking process much smoother and more efficient.
  • Nuts: If you're allergic to cashews or don't have them on hand, you can use almonds or peanuts instead. Just make sure to chop them before adding to the dish.
  • Use a large skillet or wok: A large, wide cooking surface will help to evenly cook and combine all the ingredients. It also reduces the risk of overcrowding, which can lead to steamed rather than fried rice.
  • Refrigerator: If you have leftovers of this delicious pineapple fried rice, you can store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  • Freezer: Unfortunately, I don’t recommend freezing this fried rice as it can affect the texture and consistency of the rice as well as the pineapple and veggies.
