Steps:
- Halve the pineapple lengthwise, right through the crown, keeping it attached. Put both halves cut-side up in front of you. On one of the halves, use a small sharp knife to cut into and around the perimeter of the fruit about 1/4 inch in from the peel. Locate the core in the center: cut it out on an angle on either side (it will look like a long V) and discard. Cut the remaining pineapple into a grid of small squares. Use a spoon to scoop the pieces out, leaving the pineapple empty. Chop any large pieces a little smaller and set aside in a bowl. Repeat with the other pineapple half, but reserve the pieces of fruit for another use.
- Whisk together the eggs and a small pinch of salt in a small bowl. Heat 1 teaspoon of the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Pour the eggs into the skillet and let them run freely until they cover most of the bottom. Cook, undisturbed, until the top is set and no longer runny, 4 to 5 minutes. Roll up into a cylinder and transfer to a cutting board. Cut into thin spiral slices.
- Return the skillet to high heat and add 2 tablespoons oil. Once the oil just begins to smoke, add the ham, sugar, garlic, ginger, scallion whites and 1 teaspoon of the soy sauce and cook, stirring constantly, until the ham is browned, about 2 minutes. Add the rice, pepper and remaining 3 tablespoons soy sauce and cook, stirring occasionally, until the rice is heated through and the pepper is crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Stir in the pineapple pieces, cooked egg, most of the peanuts and scallion greens, the remaining 2 teaspoons oil and salt to taste.
- Fill each pineapple half with the fried rice. Sprinkle with the remaining peanuts and scallion greens.

Tips:
- Use a ripe pineapple. A ripe pineapple will be sweeter and more flavorful than an unripe one. Look for a pineapple that is golden yellow in color and has a slightly soft feel.
- Cut the pineapple in half lengthwise. This will make it easier to scoop out the flesh and create the pineapple boat.
- Use a sharp knife to score the pineapple flesh. This will help the fruit dip to penetrate the pineapple and make it more flavorful.
- Make the fruit dip ahead of time. This will give the flavors time to meld and develop.
- Serve the pineapple boat with a variety of fresh fruit. This will allow your guests to customize their own fruit dip experience.
Conclusion:
The pineapple boat with fluffy fruit dip is a refreshing and delicious summer treat. It's perfect for parties or potlucks, and it's also a great way to use up leftover pineapple. With its sweet and tangy flavor, this fruit dip is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
