Spicy Pineapple Pickle (Acar Nenas) image

This looked too interesting to pass up! It's not too pickly, with just a tablespoon of vinegar, but deliciously sweet and spicy. From a cookbook, "Nonya Favourites," which I picked up in Singapore. The book suggests serving this with rice and a coconut curry, or fried fish.
