I'm not a big fan of pineapple in savory dishes, but I was willing to give this recipe a try. I'm glad I did because it was surprisingly good. The pineapple added a nice sweetness and tanginess that complemented the curry spices well.

I found that the curry was a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less pineapple or adding some lime juice to balance out the flavors.
