Pineapple rice is really delicious in taste because of tropical, sweet, savory and spicy flavors….. If you are not a fan of sweet rice or rice with fruit then try this one you will love it. It’s a great option for summer season. It is a greatest way to enjoy Hawaii recipe at own home. It’s a very quick and easy to make dish. I used basmati rice but you can use jasmine rice also. Both are aromatic grains.
Pineapple is my favorite fruit. I’m big lover of fried rice and there’s quite a bit of variation out there. I love pineapple fried rice or pineapple dishes because of huge pieces of pineapple. This recipe is very convenient and loaded with pineapple chunks; you can taste or feel the sweetness of pineapple. For this recipe you have saute the diced pineapple with spices and herbs and combined with cooked rice.
