Cambodian Pineapple Rice Recipe

Say "Pineapple rice with chicken" And most people will say, "Thai. " They'd probably follow that up with "Delicious" And they'd be correct on both counts. But, to be more accurate, pineapple rice, with chicken or seafood, is also a cambodian dish. It just wouldn't be fair to let the thais get all the credit. What is this pineapple rice dish exactly? It's fried rice, pure and simple. But, to the basic fried rice, chunks of fresh pineapple are added. The pineapple chunks are cut from the pineapple flesh that is scooped out of a halved pineapple. The juices that get squeezed out during the scooping process are not thrown out but, along with the diced pineapple flesh, added to the rice as well. Because there is chili in the dish, the sweet pineapple chunks and juice get mixed with the heat of the chilies creating a delicious balance. Which is best for pineapple fried rice: chicken or shrimp? Both are good. Neither one is "Better" But your choice will affect the flavor of the cooked dish, naturally. There is even no need to limit the choice between chicken and shrimp. Go for squid or diced fish fillets Catfish fillet is an especially inspired choice.
