Ginger Pineapple Fried Rice
Serves 4
Ingredients
1 cup cold Jasmine or Basmati rice cooked according to directions on the box and then cooled
3 Tbsp grapeseed, canola, peanut oil, or other high smoke-point oil
3 tablespoons finely minced fresh peeled ginger
5 scallions (white and pale green parts separated from greens), finely chopped
2 tbsp. soy sauce (not pictured)
3/4 cup diced (1/4 inch) cored peeled fresh pineapple (labeled “extra sweet”)(I used canned)
1 teaspoon dark Asian sesame oil
Directions
Heat a large (12-inch or more) heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 Tbsp of the oil to coat the bottom of the pan. When oil just begins to smoke, stir-fry ginger, white and pale green parts of scallions, and 1 tbsp of the soy sauce until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the remaining 2 Tbsp oil to the pan. Crumble rice into the pan and stir-fry until lightly browned, 3 minutes. Add the other tbsp of the soy sauce. Remove from heat, then add scallion greens, pineapple, and sesame oil, tossing to combine.
Enjoy!
Yum, yum, yum! This rice looks so good.
