Sweet and Sour Pork

Sweet and sour pork is a dish loved by both adults and children! Originating from Guangdong, the traditional method requires making 'sour fruit' first, but for a quick and easy home version, just combine ketchup with sweet and sour sauce. The secret to tender pork is frying it twice; after the outer layer is crispy, mix it with the sauce. Take advantage of the pineapple season for a delicious and healthy addition!

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. fenway -

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. Robert Gonzal -

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 cookpad.japan
