KHAO PAD SAPPAROT (STIR FRIED RICE & PINEAPPLE)
This is an unusual
recipe for Thai food because it is essentially a vegetarian dish - they are
not common in Thailand, where even nominally vegetarian dishes often have
quite a large amount of meat. This one has a little dried shrimp, and the
true vegetarian could easily leave that out. It is also unusual in that it
is rather a theatrical dish: though the theatricality comes from a Thai
habbit of frugality, and perhaps a desire to have less dishes to wash! For
two people you need a medium sized pineapple: choose carefully it should be
sweet and juicy.
