Chilled Rice: Using day-old rice is key to achieving the best texture. Freshly cooked rice can be too moist and may result in a mushy dish.
Veggie Variations: Feel free to add or substitute vegetables based on what you have on hand. Zucchini, corn, or snap peas would be great additions.
Extra Protein: If you want to add more protein, consider adding cubed tofu or tempeh that’s been lightly fried or baked before stirring it into the rice.
Customization: Adjust the seasoning to your taste. If you prefer a sweeter dish, you can add a touch more pineapple or even a drizzle of maple syrup. For more heat, increase the amount of chili flakes.
This vegan pineapple fried rice is a versatile and crowd-pleasing dish that’s perfect for a quick weeknight meal or a fun weekend lunch. Enjoy!
