Healthy Sweet and Sour Pork Made Without Deep Frying
I enjoy delicious Chinese food when eating out, but the amount of calories is worrying... Since my family loves Chinese food, I make various low-calorie Chinese style dishes without reducing the portions Give it a try.
Adjust the levels of sweetness and sourness to taste. Use your choice of cut for the pork, but if you prefer a less fatty finish, I recommend fillets, or, while slightly on the tough side, pork thighs. Cook the pork over low-medium heat! For 3 servings. Recipe by Heartful Kitchen Rei

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Chop the pork into 2.5 cm cubes (about 1-1.5 cm thick). Combine the ❍ marinade ingredients and marinate the pork for about 15 minutes.
- 2
Roughly chop the green pepper, onion, bamboo shoot, and carrot. Chop the rehydrated shiitake mushroom and pineapple into 6-8 equal pieces.
- 3
Combine the ● seasoning ingredients. Adjust the taste before adding the katakuriko.
- 4
Boil the water, then add the salt (for boiling), and start by cooking the carrots.
- 5
When the carrots are almost cooked through (70%), add the shiitake and bamboo shoots and boil for 2-3 minutes.
- 6
After 2-3 minutes, add the green peppers and boil for 1 minute. Drain, then soak in water to cool. This will fix the bright color of the green peppers.
- 7
Carefully drain the moisture from the marinated pork. Put the katakuriko in a plastic bag, add the pork, seal the bag and shake it up and down to evenly coat the pork.
- 8
Since you will be frying the pork without oil, lay a sheet of parchment paper in the frying pan. If the pork is thick, cover with a lid to cook (over low heat).
- 9
Once the pork cooks to a golden brown, turn them over to cook the other side. Remove the sheet once they cook through. Alternatively, if you're not concerned about calorie intake, deep fry the pork.
- 10
In the same frying pan, add vegetable oil, and sauté the onions. Since you'll be using just a little bit of the oil, they may stick to the pan, but try not to add extra oil at this point.
- 11
Once the onions are lightly cooked, add the boiled vegetables and seasoning ingredients (the katakuriko will have settled to the bottom, so mix it up before adding).
- 12
Once the soup comes to a boil, add the pork, mix, and then it's done.
- 13
Drizzle with plenty of the thick sauce.

Not Deep Fried! Rich Sweet and Sour Pork Not Deep Fried! Rich Sweet and Sour Pork
My husband said he wanted sweet and sour pork while we were grocery shopping. Pork butt (shoulder) cut for ginger pork was on sale, so I bought it. This was easier to cook than chunks of pork since the pieces cooked through faster and were more tender, which made it easier to eat too.If you roll the pork slices before pan frying, they'll be soft and tender, and also look more substantial. Since the pieces are coated with katakuriko and cooked in a generous amount of oil, they'll turn out as if they were deep fried. I didn't add bamboo shoots this time, but do so if you like. The flavor is on the salty side. For 2 to 3 servings. Recipe by Akito mama -

Delicious Sweet and Sour Pork Delicious Sweet and Sour Pork
I've come across many recipes where the vinegar taste was too strong or it was too sweet. So, I experimented a bit to get just the right balance of sweet and sour!If you cook the vegetables in the microwave, you don't have to sauté them! It's so easy!If you coat the meat in katakuriko, then lumps of the starch won't form.On Step 6, mix the sauce well once more before putting it into the pan. This is because the katakuriko will have hardened while waiting. Recipe by Puru berry -

This is an old recipe of mine for sweet and sour pork that I updated by stir frying the pork instead of battering and deep frying it. It makes it a quick one pan meal and we liked the fresher taste of the pork. Chicken and shrimp can be used as well.
