I really do like Pineapple!
Why ?
Because it can be eaten on its own as a fruit.
And it also is an excellent cooking ingredient.
(And: By-the-way: a great meat tenderizer; the fruit acids work wonder on beef favoured chewing gum)

I bought some pineapples today for about $1/each at the local market in PottuVille nearby.
This is just one idea of today’s dinner:

Ingredient

1 cup pineapple
375 g prawns
50 g red curry paste
250 ml thick coconut milk
50 g mushroom
30 g sweet Thai basil leave
250 g coconut milk

Palm sugar
Tamarind juice
