Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons coconut oil or quality vegetable oil, divided
2 eggs, beaten with a dash of salt
1 1/2 cups chopped fresh pineapple
1 large red bell pepper, diced
3/4 cup chopped green onions (about 1/2 bunch)
2 cloves garlic, pressed or minced
1/2 cup chopped raw, unsalted cashews
2 cups cooked and chilled brown rice*, preferably long-grain brown jasmine rice
1 tablespoon reduced-sodium tamari or soy sauce
1 to 2 teaspoons chili garlic sauce or sriracha
1 small lime, halved
Salt, to taste
Handful of fresh cilantro leaves, torn into little pieces, for garnishing

Steps:

  • Heat a large wok, cast iron skillet or non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat and place an empty serving bowl nearby. Once the pan is hot enough that a drop of water sizzles on contact, add 1 teaspoon oil. Pour in the eggs and cook, stirring frequently, until the eggs are scrambled and lightly set, about 30 seconds to 1 minute. Transfer the eggs to the empty bowl. Wipe out the pan if necessary with a paper towel (be careful, it's hot!).
  • Add 1 tablespoon oil to the pan and add the pineapple and red pepper. Cook, stirring constantly, until the liquid has evaporated and the pineapple is caramelized on the edges, about 3 to 5 minutes. Then add the green onion and garlic. Cook until fragrant while stirring constantly, about 30 seconds. Transfer the contents of the pan to your bowl of eggs.
  • Reduce the heat to medium and add the remaining 2 teaspoons oil to the pan. Pour in the cashews and cook until fragrant, stirring constantly, about 30 seconds. Add the rice to the pan and stir to combine. Cook until the rice is hot, stirring occasionally, about 3 minutes.
  • Pour the contents of the bowl back into the pan and stir to combine, breaking up the scrambled eggs with your spoon. Cook until the contents are warmed through, then remove the pan from heat. Add the tamari and chili garlic sauce, to taste. Squeeze the juice of 1/2 lime over the dish and stir to combine. Season to taste with salt and set aside.
  • Slice the remaining 1/2 lime into 4 wedges. Transfer the stir-fry to individual serving bowls and garnish each bowl with a lime wedge and a light sprinkle of cilantro. Serve with bottles of tamari and chili garlic sauce or sriracha on the side, for those who might want to add more to their bowls.

PINEAPPLE FRIED RICE

This Thai-inspired pineapple fried rice is the perfect balance of sweet and salty flavors.

Provided by Judy

Categories     Rice

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 16

8 ounces shrimp ((225g, peeled, deveined, rinsed, and pat dry))
1 cup onion ((150g, diced))
1/2 cup carrot ((75g, diced))
4 ounces ham ((or Chinese sausage; 115g, finely diced))
6 cups cooked rice ((about 900g))
2/3 cup peas ((100g))
1 cup pineapple ((diced into 1/2-inch pieces))
1 scallion ((chopped))
2 eggs ((beaten))
1/4 teaspoon salt ((more to taste))
1/2 teaspoon Shaoxing wine ((plus 1 tablespoon, divided))
4 tablespoons vegetable oil ((divided))
1 tablespoon fish sauce
1 tablespoon light soy sauce ((or Thai thin soy sauce))
1/2 teaspoon ground white pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons sesame oil

Steps:

  • First, prepare the shrimp, onion, carrot, ham/Chinese sausage, rice, peas, pineapple, and scallions. If using fresh pineapple, remember to trim away the pineapple core. If using canned pineapple, rinse away any syrup and pat dry with a clean kitchen towel.
  • Beat 2 eggs with ¼ teaspoon salt and ½ teaspoon Shaoxing wine. Heat your wok over medium heat until lightly smoking. Add 1 tablespoon oil, and scramble the eggs for 1 minute-until just cooked. Turn off the heat, break the egg into small pieces, transfer to a dish, and set aside.
  • Heat another 1 tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Cook the shrimp until they turn pink, about 1 minute. Remove from the wok and set aside.
  • Heat the last 2 tablespoons of oil over medium heat. Cook the onion until translucent. Add the diced carrots and ham, and cook until the carrots are no longer crunchy. Add the rice and 1 tablespoon Shaoxing wine. The steam from the wine will loosen the rice chunks!
  • Stir-fry everything together well, and add in the peas, 1 tablespoon fish sauce, 1 tablespoon light soy sauce, ½ teaspoon ground white pepper, 1 teaspoon sesame oil, the scrambled egg, and the cooked shrimp. Stir-fry everything together for a few minutes.
  • Finally, add the pineapple and scallions. Mix everything again for a minute or two. To crisp and warm the rice through, you can use your wok spatula to spread the rice in a single layer around the surface area of the wok, making use of all the heat and letting any excess liquid evaporate.
  • Salt to taste, and serve immediately!

HAWAIIAN SAUSAGE SKILLET



Hawaiian Sausage Skillet image

I made this up one day when I couldn't find a recipe anywhere with these ingredients. So I kind of threw it together on a whim. Sugar can be adjusted for sweetness, and if the sauce gets a bit thicker than desired I suggest adding a little chicken broth as it's thickening. Serve immediately over rice.

Provided by Food.com

Categories     Pineapple

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 medium ripe pineapple, halved through the stem
1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
2 teaspoons sesame oil
2 1/2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
3 links Chinese sausage, sliced into 1/4 -inch rounds
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 teaspoons minced ginger
4 scallions, white parts finely chopped and greens sliced thin
1 cup frozen peas and carrot, thawed
1 medium red bell pepper, diced small
3 cups cooked medium grain rice
2 large eggs, beaten
kosher salt
ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Use a small sharp knife to cut around the edge of each pineapple half, then scoop the pineapple flesh from the halves. Discard the core and chop the fruit into small pieces. You will have about 1 1/2 cups fruit. Set aside and place pineapple halves on a plate or platter.
  • In a small bowl, whisk to combine the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, rice wine vinegar and sesame oil; set aside.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium high heat. Add the peas, carrots and red bell pepper and cook until softened, about 3-5 minutes. Stir in the garlic, ginger and scallion whites and cook 1 more minute, then transfer to a medium bowl with a slotted spoon.
  • Place skillet back over medium high heat, add 1 tablespoon oil and saute the sliced sausage until slightly browned, about 4-5 minutes. Transfer to the bowl with the vegetables with a slotted spoon.
  • Return the skillet to medium high heat, add the rice and flatten in an even layer. Cook undisturbed to allow the bottom to crisp slightly, about 3-5 minutes. Stir in the cooked sausage and vegetables, 3/4 cup chopped pineapple and season with salt and pepper. Cook 1-2 minutes then stir in the sauce to combine.
  • Push the rice to the sides and make a well in the center. Add about 1/2 tablespoon oil to the well and pour in the eggs. Scramble the eggs then stir to combine with ingredients in the pan.
  • Spoon rice mixture into Pineapple halves and garnish with remaining chopped pineapple and sliced scallion greens.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe pineapple: Look for pineapples with a deep golden-yellow color and a sweet, fragrant aroma. Avoid pineapples with green or brown patches, as they may be unripe or overripe.
  • Use a sharp knife to cut the pineapple: This will help you avoid tearing the flesh of the pineapple and make it easier to cut into even pieces.
  • Do not overcook the pineapple: Overcooked pineapple will become mushy and lose its flavor. Cook it just until it is softened and slightly caramelized.
  • Use good quality smoked sausage: The flavor of the smoked sausage will greatly impact the overall flavor of the dish. Choose a smoked sausage that has a smoky flavor that you enjoy.
  • Serve with rice or noodles: This dish is traditionally served with rice or noodles. However, you can also serve it with other sides, such as roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes.

Conclusion:

Thai Pineapple Fried Rice with Smoked Sausage is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a quick and easy meal. The combination of sweet pineapple, savory smoked sausage, and fragrant Thai spices creates a flavorful and satisfying dish that is sure to please everyone at the table.
