Ingredients

  • 3 cups Cooked jasmine rice (day-old preferred)
  • 1 cup Fresh pineapple, diced
  • 1 medium Carrot, finely chopped
  • 0.5 cup Frozen peas, thawed
  • 1 medium Red bell pepper, diced
  • 3 stalks Green onions, sliced
  • 3 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon Ginger, grated
  • 3 tablespoons Soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
  • 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
  • 2 tablespoons Neutral oil (e.g., vegetable oil)
  • 1 teaspoon Curry powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon Pepper
  • 0.25 cup Cashews (optional, for garnish)
  • 1 whole Lime wedges (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Ensure you are using day-old, cold jasmine rice for the best texture. If freshly cooked, spread the rice on a tray to cool completely before using.

Step 2

Heat 1 tablespoon of neutral oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.

Step 3

Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the diced carrot, red bell pepper, and thawed peas. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables start to soften.

Step 5

Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of neutral oil to the empty space, then add the cold jasmine rice.

Step 6

Sprinkle curry powder evenly over the rice and mix it thoroughly into the rice, ensuring it is evenly coated with the seasoning.

Step 7

Stir the rice and vegetables together, then add the diced pineapple and sliced green onions. Toss to combine.

Step 8

Drizzle the soy sauce (or tamari) and sesame oil over the rice mixture. Stir well to evenly distribute the flavors.

Step 9

Season with salt and pepper to taste. Continue stir-frying for another 3-4 minutes, allowing the rice to absorb all the flavors and develop a slight crispness.

Step 10

Remove the skillet from heat. If using, sprinkle cashews on top for added texture and crunch.

Step 11

Serve hot with lime wedges on the side for a burst of freshness. Enjoy your Vegan Fried Pineapple Rice!
