  1. This is good, but very delicate and mild in flavor. So I kicked it up so I added 6 cloves garlic and a tbsp of freshly minced ginger instead of the smaller amounts listed. I used fresh pineapple, chopped instead of canned, which made the dish only mildly sweet. The second time I made it, I turned it into a Thai version by subsituting the soy sauce for fish sauce, lime juice & rice vinegar. I subsituted the green onions for Thai Basil and cilantro. It, too, was a great version.
     
  2. Good stuff.
     
  3. Made this to accompany a grilled salmon dinner for Mother's Day. No leftovers and several requests for the recipe--it was a huge success! Just the right combination of sweet and spicy. Super simple and easy to make--cooked the rice the night before-took only minutes to prepare for dinner. Thanks so much for sharing this recipe.
     
  4. Thank you so much for sharing this lovely recipe Marie. We certainly enjoyed this spicy, sweet and flavourful dish. I didn't have any green onions so subed with chopped sweet vadallia onions, it worked great. It was perfect with the oven fried chicken I served for dinner.
     
  5. Very good, the warm pineapple and the hint of spice from the pepper flakes makes this rice dish excellent!
