Thai Style Pineapple Fried Rice

Print

Khao Pad Sapparod is Thai-style fried rice with pineapple, usually plated on the pineapple skin served in restaurants. The common ingredients are pineapple (obviously), shrimps or chicken (or non for fully vegan diet), cashew nuts, raisins, tomatoes, curry powder, and fish sauce. In this recipe, I have chosen shrimps for the protein choice because the flavour complements well with pineapple compared to chicken.
