THAI PINEAPPLE FRIED RICE RECIPE (VEGAN)


THAI PINEAPPLE FRIED RICE RECIPE (VEGAN)

This Thai pineapple fried rice is one of my favorite recipes for busy days! It is super easy to make, healthy and very tasty. Plus, it's so colorful! Eating this pineapple rice is like going to Thailand!

Ingredients

1 cup basmati rice (corresponding to 3 cups boiled rice)
1 onion, chopped
3 cloves of garlic, chopped
1 tablespoon of oil
2 carrots, cut into thin sticks
1/2 red pepper, cut into thin sticks
1/2 cup frozen peas
1/2 cup cashew
1 tablespoon of soy sauce
1 tablespoon curry powder
1 cup pineapple, chopped into small pieces
2 green onions, cut into rings
salt to taste
black pepper to taste
red pepper flakes (optional)
fresh cilantro (optional)

Instructions

  1. What I like most is Thai fried rice with pineapples and leftover rice the previous day. So cook the rice according to the instructions on the packaging and store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator until you use it. Cook frozen peas for about 7 minutes.
  2. In a large saucepan, heat oil and fry the onions for about 3 minutes. Then add garlic, carrots and bell peppers. Cook for 3 minutes.
  3. Then add cooked rice and season with curry powder and soy sauce. Then add pineapple, peas, chives and cashews. Season with salt, black pepper and red pepper flakes. Stir until well mixed. Serve with fresh cilantro. Enjoy it!

Notes

  1. This Thai fried pineapple rice is best if you use the remaining rice from the day before. Unlike freshly cooked rice, the cooled rice does not stick and does not become soft when frying.
  2. Make sure the pineapple you are using for this recipe is ripe. Check out this article, which tells you more about how to find out if a pineapple is ripe.
  3. For the gluten-free version, use tamari instead of soy sauce.
  4. If you want, you can also add some protein to this pineapple fried rice. I saw that they sometimes add chicken or shrimp in Thailand. My vegan suggestions are fried tofu or tempeh.
  5. Prepare all the ingredients before starting the cooking process. Fried rice comes together very quickly, so you don’t have much time to chop when you start cooking.
  6. If you are looking for a healthier version, you can also replace white basmati rice with brown rice. It would also be a good choice for people with diabetes, as brown rice has the best glycemic index.
  7. This recipe works best in a wok or in a cast iron skillet.
