# Étapes de préparation:
01 -
In a bowl, pour both rums over the pineapple slices, ensuring they're submerged. Leave for at least an hour. Strain the liquid, saving the rums separately. Pat each slice dry with paper towels.
02 -
In three bowls, get things ready: flour in one, whisk the eggs and coconut milk in another, and shredded coconut in the third.
03 -
Take one pineapple ring at a time. First cover it in the flour, then dip it in the egg mixture, and finally coat it generously with coconut flakes, pressing to make sure it sticks.
04 -
Warm up enough oil, about 2.5 cm deep, in a big sturdy pot set to medium-high heat. Fry the coated pineapple, one batch at a time, for a minute per side until golden. Use a slotted spoon to transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels.
05 -
In a medium bowl, combine the cream cheese and powdered sugar with a mixer until smooth. Add 2 tablespoons of the reserved rum and stir, adding more rum if you’d like a thinner dip.
06 -
Serve the hot pineapples with the sweet and tangy dipping sauce on the side.
