Khao op sapparot

(Pineapple Fried Rice)

Khao op sapparot is a traditional rice dish. Although there is no set list of ingredients, the dish is made with a combination of rice that's at least a day old, garlic, ginger, onions, shallots, stir-fry sauce, and pineapple chunks. The garlic, ginger, and onions are fried in oil, followed by the rice and pineapple pieces.


The ingredients are tossed together and the dish is seasoned with salt and pepper. Khao op sapparot is often served in a carved pineapple shell and it's typically garnished with chopped spring onions on top. The dish can also be enriched with pieces of chicken, raisins, crunchy cashews, or chopped chili peppers.
