HomeBraised Pineapple (Pajeri Nenas)

Braised Pineapple (Pajeri Nenas)

Braised pineapple or locally known as “pajeri nenas” is an accompaniment to nasi minyak (buttered rice) served often during weddings. When an elder person approach a young girl and ask, “Bila kita nak makan nasi minyak?” When are we having nasi minyak? It means when are you getting married. Nasi minyak, pajeri nenas and beef curry is synonymous with Kelantanese and Johorean weddings.
Braised pineapples can be found in most food shops selling rice in these 2 states because pineapples are grown in both Kelantan and Johor states. It is very easy to make and the pineapples are not cored as simmering the core will soften but still hold the fruit together . The sweet savory sauce is thickened for a more intense flavor by reducing the sauce without the pineapples in it. This should take no more than extra 2 minutes over high heat. Chillies are added toward the end so that the dish is not too spicy. The marriage of spices, ginger and chilies makes this dish really yummy. Hope you enjoy cooking this dish!
