This dish was inspired by a delicious Pineapple Fried Rice offered in a Ollie's in New York. In Ollie's the dish is served in half a pineapple. You can do that if you want, but we don't do that although it would be fun.
This is very easy, and although I have not tried making it yet I think I could handle it. Gram, however does a great job.
Ingredients:
tofu
white rice (or brown if you prefer)
soy sauce
sesame seed oil
pineapple
any veggies you like, we use:
snap peas
carrots
sweet peppers
green and red peppers
squash
onion
garlic
serrano peppers
You chop all the veggies, mince the garlic, dice serrano and some of the pineapple and throw them in the wok with the oil until they are cooked. By this time you should have some plain rice already made. Then you add the rice to the wok and mix it up with the veggies and such... you can add soy sauce to taste and more sesame oil if desired.
If you'd like you can add some chicken or tofu. It should already be cooked. And if we're talking tofu it should already be dried out and added with the veggies to get some flavor.
Eat with your favorite hot sauce, ours is Sriracha-- sometimes we don't need it depending on how much serrano was added. If you have some fresh pineapple left over, add it to your dish before serving.
ENJOY!!
P.S. There are no measurements on things here because Gram just adds things to taste. Last night's we made rice in the cooker and we made 4 cups of plain white rice. Everything else depends on what you like and how you like it.
