Sweet and Sour Pork
This is a favorite Cantonese style dish that goes great with hot boiled rice.
1 lb. thinly sliced pork loin, pounded thin to about ¼" and cut into small pieces
1 yellow onion, cut into chunks
1 tsp dried red chili pepper flakes
2 - 3 cloves of garlic, chopped fine
½ 14 oz. can pineapple chunks
2 - 3 sweet bell peppers, cut into chunks
2 tsp cornstarch
1 egg
⅓ C white vinegar
1 tbsp soy sauce
4 tbsp sugar
1 tbsp tomato ketchup
2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1 tbsp sweet rice wine
3 tbsp vegetable oil
2 tsp cornstarch mixed in with 4 t water.
Make the sweet and sour sauce by mixing the vinegar, soy sauce, sugar, ketchup, and Worcestershire sauce together. Set sauce aside for later use. Beat egg and dip pork pieces into egg and then coat them with cornstarch. Using a wok or large sauté pan, heat 1 T oil over medium heat and fry the pork until it is cooked. Remove pork and set aside. Next, heat 2 T oil in a wok, and stir-fry garlic for about 1 minute. Add onion followed by the bell peppers and continue to stir-fry until the peppers are tender. Then add dried chili pepper and pineapple and the pork and stir-fry, mixing and turning all the ingredients briskly; moisten with the rice wine to add flavor. Finally add the sweet and sour sauce, followed by the cornstarch dissolved in water; mix thoroughly and serve.
