Khao Op Sapparot (Pineapple Fried Rice)

There is nothing to not like about khao op sapparot, or pineapple fried rice. You get fried, aromatic rice in the most cheerful color, tender pieces of chicken, crunchy cashew nuts, a sprinkling of fresh, crisp greens, and juicy chunks of pineapple, of course. If you’re lucky, it gets served to you in a quirky pineapple bowl.

Khao op sapparot is already a meal of its own, but since you’re in Bangkok, it would be impossible not to want to pair it with other delicious Thai dishes such as spring rolls and hoy tod.
