I really love fried chicken topped with onion and sweet and sour sauce. So, I tried a pork version.I think this sauce could be used in many dishes. It goes well with fried chicken and would give a deliciously mild taste to shredded vegetables. You can also use thinly sliced pork. Recipe by Raby

Sweet and Spicy Braised Pork Belly with Daikon Radish Sweet and Spicy Braised Pork Belly with Daikon Radish
Braised pork belly and daikon radish has been always one of the side dishes I make, but I added some changes to the recipe a friend's mum showed me. I made it more substantial using my usual ingredients.The daikon absorbs the flavour as it is cooled down. It tastes better when left to stand for a while than eaten straight away. It is nice if you cook boiled eggs together with it. If you heat the daikon for 2 to 3 minutes in a microwave beforehand you can cook the dish quickly. Recipe by Nokosandon -
Easy Sweet and Sour Bite-Size Pork Belly Easy Sweet and Sour Bite-Size Pork Belly
If the pieces of pork are too big, they can be hard to eat, so I made this with small bits.I was able to reduce the cooking time by cutting the veggies and pork into small pieces.Since I like garlic, I added it to my sweet and sour pork and it tasted great.Chopping the vegetables into small sizes should reduce the amount of time it takes for them to cook, but for those who prefer larger sized pieces, heat the carrots in the microwave first to cut down on cooking time.Leave the grease from the pork in Step 3 in the pan, and sauté the vegetables in the grease in Step 4. For 4 servings. Recipe by Milis -

I decided to roast it simply because it takes a long time to simmer.Use the juice of the grated onion as well. You need about 1/4 of an onion. I've indicated the amount in tablespoons to make it easier.The roasting time differs depending on the thickness of the meat. Turn it over when it's lightly browned on one side, and watch it so that it cooks through thoroughly. Recipe by Mirunesan -

Sweet and sour pork Sweet and sour pork
I am a big fan of our local mall's sweet and sour pork. Mainly because of the meat, which they keep separate from the sauce until you order. This guarantees crunchy, juicy meat every time. So of course, I do the same with mine.
