Thai Pineapple Fried Rice
Report
Thai Pineapple Fried Rice is our current 30 minute dinner obsession ~ one night we have it plain, the next night grilled shrimp or rotisserie chicken, and again with a runny egg...can we just eat this for the rest of our lives??

Ingredients
- 6 cups cooked jasmine rice, cooled (preferably day-old)
- 1 cup raw cashews
- 4 eggs
- 2 Tbsp vegetable oil
- 4 Tbsp ginger, minced
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 Tbsp yellow curry powder
- 1 tsp ground turmeric
- 1 medium yellow onion, sliced thinly
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 red bell pepper, chopped
- 3/4 cup carrot, diced (frozen or fresh)
- 3/4 cup peas (frozen or fresh)
- 2 cups fresh pineapple, chopped
- 2 Tbsp soy sauce
- 1 Tbsp Thai fish sauce (vegetarians use more soy sauce)
- 1/4 cup golden raisins
- 1/2 cup scallions, thinly sliced
- fresh basil or cilantro for garnish, optional
Instructions
- In pan over medium heat, lightly toast the cashews until they start to turn golden. Remove and set aside.
- In the same pan, scramble the eggs in a little oil. Remove and set aside.
- To a large wok or skillet, add the oil, curry powder, turmeric, ginger, garlic, onion, and salt. Sautee for about 3 minutes over medium heat until fragrant and beginning to soften.
- Add the red pepper, carrots, peas, and cashews and sauté for another 4 minutes or so.
- Add the pineapple, and cook for just about a minute until heated through.
- Add the soy sauce and fish sauce along with the cooked rice, and gently fold everything together until well combined.
- Finally, fold in the scrambled eggs, golden raisins, and scallions.
- Continue to stir fry briefly to get everything piping hot.
- Serve topped with shredded basil or chopped cilantro.
Notes
- This meal comes together super fast, so a little prep is important. Measure, slice and chop all your ingredients before you start, you'll thank me later.
