I like to eat any kind of fried rice. This is not my first attempt on pineapple fried rice. Usually I will buy canned pineapple which is easier and more convenient. Well, I was in the mood to prepare pineapple fried rice by using fresh pineapple chunks and serve in a hollowed out pineapple shell. So, I bought a medium sized pineapple from the market last weekend.
I remembered my mum told me that using rice that has been kept in the fridge to fry will be delicious. So, I cooked extra rice the night before so I could use the left over rice for my pineapple fried rice! :P
