Let’s make it.

Use rice cooled promptly and refrigerated within 2 hours, or freshly cooked rice spread briefly to release steam.
Heat half the oil, scramble eggs until set and transfer to a clean plate.
Add remaining oil, carrot and peas; stir-fry until tender and cooked. Add pineapple, then rice and soy sauce.
Return eggs and scallion. Stir-fry until all rice is steaming hot and reaches 74°C; serve immediately.
