2.Heat vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.

3.Add minced garlic and chopped onion to the wok; stir-fry for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant and translucent.

4.Add diced red bell pepper and pineapple chunks; stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes until the bell pepper is slightly tender and pineapple is warmed through.

6.Add the chilled jasmine rice to the wok, breaking up any clumps with a spatula. Stir everything together to combine.

7.Sprinkle curry powder, white pepper, and sugar evenly over the rice mixture. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes, ensuring the rice is evenly coated with the spices.

8.Add soy sauce and fish sauce to the wok. Stir well to distribute the sauces evenly throughout the rice.

9.Stir in sliced green onions and roasted cashews. Cook for another minute to warm through and blend flavors.

11.Remove from heat and stir in chopped fresh cilantro leaves.
