THE BEST PINEAPPLE FRIED RICE INGREDIENTS
To make the Thai pineapple curry fried rice recipe, you will need the following ingredients Cooked Rice – I prefer to use Jasmine rice for this recipe. Jasmine rice is originally from Thailand and is commonly used in Southeast Asian cooking. It is a long-grain variety of rice with a subtle floral aroma and a soft, sticky texture when cooked. One day’s old rice works best for the recipe. If you would like to make fried rice with freshly cooked rice, allow it to cool completely. You may as well use any other variety of long grain rice too like Basmati Rice. I have a detailed write-up on What kind of Rice to use for Fried Rice? Mixed Vegetables - Carrots, Red Bell Pepper, Fresh or frozen peas, white onion, scallions Ginger & Garlic - Minced Ginger Garlic is all you need. Alternatively use store-bought ginger paste and garlic paste. Soy Sauce - Use Gluten Free Soy Sauce to make it a GF option. Dark & Light Soy Sauce is available in the market. I like to use Dark Soy Sauce when the flavors need to be bold in soy. Curry Powder - adds a great twist to this fried rice recipe. Sriracha Sauce - The heating element to the rice comes from the Hot sauce. You can use any other hot sauce or even sliced Thai chilies too. Salt & Pepper - Add a controlled portion of salt to the rice, as soy sauce has some in it already. Sesame Oil
