วิธีทำ

Prepare all ingredients before cooking. Dice pineapple, chop vegetables, and pat shrimp dry. If using leftover rice, fluff it to separate grains.
5 minutes
Use cold, day-old rice to prevent clumping and ensure a fluffy texture.
- 2
Heat half the oil in a large wok or nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Add shrimp and stir-fry until just cooked, about 2 minutes. Remove and set aside.
3 minutes
Do not overcook shrimp—they should be pink and opaque.
- 3
Add remaining oil to the pan. Sauté garlic and onion until fragrant and translucent.
2 minutes
Keep the heat high to achieve a slight smoky aroma, signature of Thai fried rice.

Push the aromatics to one side. Crack the egg into the pan, scrambling until just set, then mix with the vegetables.
2 minutes
Let the egg set slightly before stirring for fluffy curds.
