PINEAPPLE BAKED RICE (MAIN COURSE FOR CHINESE NEW YEAR)



Pineapple Baked Rice (Main Course for Chinese New Year) image

Pineapple baked rice uses a pineapple skin as a bowl, stuffing it with fried rice. After you bake it for 15 minutes, the pineapple flavor will go into the rice and your whole house will be filled with pineapple aroma! This is great for kids. It has vegetables and a light, sweet taste. You may add cheese on top of the rice if you like. I personally don't like to add cheese, I want to keep the dish simple and original. I serve it as a main course for Chinese New Year.

Time 1h5m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup Thai jasmine rice
¾ cup water
1 pineapple
¼ cup vegetable oil, divided
2 eggs, beaten
1 link Chinese sausage, thinly sliced
¼ cup finely chopped carrot
¼ cup finely chopped onion
¼ cup green peas
¼ cup corn

Steps:

  • Rinse jasmine rice and place in a rice cooker with water. Cook rice according to manufacturer's instructions, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
  • Cut pineapple in half lengthwise. Cut out flesh, leaving a thin layer on the skin. Chop 1/2 cup of the flesh; place in a bowl. Reserve remaining flesh for another use. Place pineapple 'bowls' on a baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until fragrant, about 5 minutes. Remove from the oven.
  • Increase oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Pour in beaten eggs; cook until set, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate and cut into small pieces. Use a paddle to fluff the cooked rice.
  • Cook and stir Chinese sausage in a separate, dry skillet until fat renders, about 5 minutes. Transfer sausage to a bowl, reserving fat in the skillet.
  • Stir remaining 2 tablespoons oil into the skillet used to cook the sausage. Heat it until you can feel the heat above the skillet. Stir in carrot for 1 minute. Add onion, peas, and corn; stir-fry until onion softens, 3 to 5 minutes. Add 1/2 of the rice; stir well to combine. Mix in remaining rice. Add egg pieces and sausage slices. Mix in pineapple cubes evenly.
  • Transfer fried rice to the pineapple bowls. Cover with aluminum foil.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until heated through, about 15 minutes.

CHINESE NEW YEAR SWEET RICE

This is a traditional Chinese sweet rice recipe that is usually served for the Chinese New Year. This recipe was handed down to me from my dad who liked to eat this alone as a main dish, so it's a little heartier than most other sweet rice recipes. For those of you who know what Chinese sweet rice is, this is the most awesome tasting recipe yet!
