Preparation
- Using a sharp knife carefully cut the pineapple in half lengthways.
- Using the tip of a knife, cut around the edge of the pineapple being careful not to cut through the skin.

- Heat the wok until smoking hot and pour in 6 tablespoons of oil.
- Add the garlic, chilli, and onion and stir until fragrant.
- Add in the rice and vegetables, and fry until rice turns slightly brown and the veggies are thoroughly cooked.
