Pineapple Tofu Fried Rice Food

PINEAPPLE FRIED RICE

Steps:

• If serving rice in fresh pineapple, halve the pineapple lengthwise, leaving the leafy top intact and cutting through it. Hollow out each half, reserving 1 cup of the fruit for the rice and extra for garnishing. Save remaining pineapple for another use. Make a small slice on the outside of each half to create a flat base to hold the pineapple steady. Set aside.
• Crumble the cold rice between your fingers to separate the grains, and set aside.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a wok or large skillet, swirling to coat the pan. Add the onion and toss until soft, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic and toss until fragrant and soft, about 1 to 2 minutes. Add the ginger and toss for another minute.
• Add the remaining tablespoon of oil, then add the rice. Fry for 2 to 3 minutes over high heat, then add the beans, tomatoes, and pineapple, and fry 2 to 3 minutes more. Add the fish sauce and sugar, and toss until ingredients are well combined and rice is heated thoroughly, about 5 minutes. Add the green onions and toss to combine. Remove from the heat and transfer to a serving platter, or if using fresh pineapple, fill each half of prepared pineapple with warm rice and garnish with extra chunks of pineapple.

HAWAIIAN PINEAPPLE SHRIMP FRIED RICE

• Add the red bell pepper, peas, carrots, corn, and cook for about 2 minutes, or until vegetables begin to soften, stir intermittently.
• Add the garlic, ginger, and cook for 1 minute, stir intermittently.
• Push vegetables to one side of the skillet, add the eggs to the other side, and cook to scramble, stirring as necessary.
• Turn the heat to low, add the cooked rice, stir to combine, and allow it to warm through for a minute or two. Tip - If mixture seems at all dry, add additional oil to taste.
• Add the shrimp back in, the pineapple, green onions, evenly drizzle with soy sauce (use less at first if you're very sensitive to salt or soy sauce), evenly season with pepper, and optional red pepper flakes, and stir to combine.
• Taste and check for seasoning balance. If desired, add additional soy sauce to taste (I find it necessary to use about 1/3 cup in total for this recipe).
