Instructions

 

• 
  First, buy a whole fresh pineapple that is ALMOST ripe and cut it lengthwise.
• 
  Using one half of the pineapple, carve out the flesh of the pineapple into cubes, leaving a firm border.
• 
  Dry the carved pineapple boat in the oven at 160 degree C (320 degree F) for 2 - 3 minutes.
• 
  Cut the pineapple cubes into smaller pieces and set them aside.
• 
  Have ready some cooked rice, preferably overnight rice. The rice should not be too soft.
• 
  Before we start to cook, have ready all the ingredients needed for this fried rice.
• 
  In a small bowl, mix the dry spice (curry powder, sugar, salt and pepper) together.
• 
  Then combine the wet ingredients together by mixing the fish sauce and soy sauce together.
• 
  Heat up enough vegetable oil in wok on medium high heat.
• 
  Add and saute the cut shrimp. They should turn opaque and just cooked through. Set aside.
• 
  Using the same oil add in minced garlic. Fry till lightly golden in colour.
• 
  Then add shallots. Continue to fry till fragrant.
• 
  Add a little more oil if need to and add in the lightly beaten eggs.
• 
  Break the eggs up a little bit and scramble it quickly.
• 
  Just before it has the chance to set completely, add in the prepared rice. This way, the egg will be mixed into the rice and not be chunky and separated.
• 
  Stir fry on high heat, tossing well till thoroughly mixed breaking up any lumps.
• 
  Once the rice has all been mixed with the egg, add in the cooked shrimp.
• 
  Sti fry to mix the shrimp into the fried rice. This will ensure that almost every bite of the fried rice there will be shrimp bite.
• 
  Then add in the dry seasoning mixed earlier.
• 
  Next add in the fish and soy sauce. Stir fry till heated through.
• 
  Then add in the blanched carrots for colours. Continue to fry and really make sure the rice is well mixed and broken apart.
• 
  Then add in the cashew nuts.
• 
  Lastly add the cut fresh pineapples. Don't cook this any longer than you need to. Fry till the pineapple starts to be a darker yellow and is a little translucent on the outside.
• 
  Stir fry briefly to dry out the rice and sprinkle some more white pepper over it (if desired). At this point, season to taste.
• 
  Turn the heat off. Then add the chopped green onions for colours and mix well. And we're done!
• 
  Serve this tropical fried rice in the carved pineapple boat.
• 
  Or served on serving plate garnished with sliced cucumber and ENJOY!
