AFF Thailand – Thai Pineapple Fried Rice

thai pineapple fried rice

AFF Japan took off to a very encouraging start with over 150 entries!! To see the round-up, click here. Wow, so this month we will be concentrating on Thailand. Thai cuisine is so exciting with its punchy flavours and the colour they bring out in their dishes. To kick off my Thai month, I’m making the quintessential Thai Pineapple Fried Rice!

The addition of pineapple adds a wonderful aroma to the fried rice. And you might think pineapple might overpower the other flavours of the rice. On the contrary, cooked pineapple is a whole different story. When cooked, pineapple taste more sweet and mellow and thus melds together perfectly with the fried rice.
