Vegan Pineapple fried rice recipe

24 Jul Vegan Pineapple fried rice recipe

Last Updated on July 24, 2021 by blessmyfoodbypayal

Vegan and glutenfree, Pineapple fried rice is a quick stir fried recipe made using few Chinese sauces, pineapple dices, basic spices and leftover cooked rice.

This recipe is a love triangle of sweet, spicy and tangy flavors. Anyone who loves pineapple must try this recipe bursting with different flavors from one pot.

This is the first time we are using fruit in savory recipe and believe it, this pineapple rice was awesome and delicious.

Secondly, the benefit of this recipe is that it utilizes the leftover rice. So whenever you have some rice in refrigerator, just collect few ingredients and voila, a delicious and mouth-watering pineapple rice recipe is ready in a jiffy.

But note that this is not a compulsion to have leftover rice only. You can make this recipe with the freshly made rice too.

The only thing you need to take care of the temperature of rice. They must be completely cool, rather refrigerated are the best.

So even if you are making this recipe with the fresh rice, better cook the rice well in time, cool and refrigerate.

The purpose of cooling down the rice is to prevent them from turning mushy while frying.

The cooled rice will give you a delicious flaky and fluffy pineapple fried rice.

Further you can also add Vegetables of your choice. You may add green peas, beans, potato, carrots, cauliflower or anything you like.

But we loved to keep this recipe simple and basic. Addition of other veggies could dominate the enhancing flavours of pineapple and this recipe would have become veg fried rice instead of pineapple fried rice.
