Pineapple Fried Rice - simple recipe

yes, simple recipe indeed ...why do I post a recipe that is so simple, one may asks ....well, I often look up a recipe, simple or otherwise, before I cook ...hehehe so, it is for the benefit of someone like me, who sometimes face huge "cooking block' (similar to writer's block) when it come to cooking ..we all have our limitations right?

 the end result

 i just use whatever i had in the fridge and kitchen cupboard for this simple dish:


(i)     Heat oil in a frying pan -add sliced beef till brown and set aside
(ii)    In the same pan, add a bit more oil, and add  chopped garlic, minced ginger and chopped onions. Till fragrant
(iii)   because i like it to be spicy, I add chillies at this stage (chopped fresh chillies or chillie paste - whatever you have), and continue to heat it up. Add vegetables - like carrots, Pak Choi and, of course, pineapples. I love to use fresh pineapples - but canned ones are also good. your choice ...
(iv)   and then add rice - preferably cold rice coz it means that the rice will be easily separated. Hot rice tend to stick together and becoming lumpy ...and stir through thoroughly to coat the rice
(v)    toss in the fried beef, season with salt and pepper ...and at the very last minute, add chopped cariander leaves ...

serve and ready to eat ....sometimes I had a side serving of fried egg to go with this ...or a side salad (lettuce, corn and tomato) ..like i said, it's your choice :-) and what's more important is that you can make this in a jiffy!
