Vegetarian Pineapple Fried Rice

"One of the prettiest ways to serve fried rice is in a pineapple boat. The first time I was served fried rice in a pineapple boat was at a Thai Restaurant in Bangkok. It was my first visit there. I was so fascinated by the presentation and after that, for the longest time, it was Mum who makes pineapple rice for us and serves them in pineapple boats."
