Fried Pineapple

Pineapples are great in juices and so refreshing on a warm day. On cold winter days most of us struggle to eat fruit unless its baked in a crumble or pie as we naturally crave those winter carbs. But here's an alternative way of using a pineapple that fulfills our winter needs in taste as well as vitamins.

This close to Christmas means that there seems to be a lot of offers on multi-buy fruit and you can imagine the days between Christmas Eve and New Year may see more reductions, so the good thing about this is that the riper your pineapple the better. So pick up some cheap ripe fruit and give it a go.

Fried Spicy Pineapple

1. Skin, de-core and slice your pineapple into small chunks.

2. Heat a drop of oil in a wok or frying pan and 'sweat' off a small finally chopped onion.

3. Add your pineapple, a pinch of hot paprika and a can of sweetcorn.

4. Continue cooking and stirring until your pineapple browns a bit and season to taste with salt and pepper.

Serve on toast or with rice or even as hot side to a portion of vegan ice-cream.
