When you are living a gluten-free lifestyle, it's hard to find places to go out to eat. I found that even dishes that I assumed were safe would cause a reaction in Cash or Trav. I also found that I would take my whole family out to eat, spend $40-50, referee the whole time, waste tons of food and come away saying let's never do that again. Here is a dish that is gluten-free and tastes like a restaurant would serve. It's also cheap and easy to make. Enjoy!
- Pineapple Fried Rice
| 8 | oz pineapple chunks, drained or fresh (I actually like canned better for this dish) |
| 3 | cups cooked rice (keep it on the dry side) |
| 1/2 | cup onions, thinly sliced |
| 3 | cloves garlic, finely chopped |
| 1/2 | can of diced green chilis |
| 1 | egg |
| 1 | can of peas or 12 oz frozen |
| 1 | small carrot, grated (about 1/4 cup) |
| 1/4 | cup raisins |
| 1/2 | cup raw cashews |
| 3 | scallions, finely sliced |
| 1/3 | cup fresh cilantro |
| 2 | tbsp fish sauce |
| 2 | tsp. curry powder |
Directions- Drizzle 1-2 Tbsp. oil in a wok/large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add onions, garlic, and chili, cook for about a minute.
- Spread veggies to sides of pan. Crack egg in middle of wok and stir quickly to cook (like making scrambled eggs).
- Add the carrot (if using), peas, cashews. Stir-fry 1 minute in the same way, adding more stock if needed.
- Now add the rice, pineapple chunks, and raisins. Add the fish/soy sauce and curry powder and mix well. Gently stir-fry to combine over medium-high to high heat until the rice "dances" (begins to make popping sounds) - about 3 minutes.
- Top with cilantro and green onions.
