Directions
Chinese Take-Out Sweet and Sour Pineapple Pork, Battered bite-size pork in a delicious sweet and sour sauce — this is very good!, this was really great… VERY much like take out – and super easy to prepare. i didn’t have any cornstarch so i doubled the amounts of flour in both instances which worked just fine (im not sure what the difference might have been – so im not sure if i missed out on some extra awesomeness). i also didn’t have any wine vinegar so i subbed some apple vinegar (also fine). this is definitely more on the sour side of sweet and sour (which we prefer) – people wanting a sweeter sauce should definitely opt for sweetened pineapple (used unsweetened). i cut my pork into long thin strips instead of cubes because thats the way my favorite take out place does it. once the sauce was done i mixed the pork back in to coat it with the sauce… and served it with garlic rice. thanks so much for this recipe (i wish i had taken a picture but we devoured the whole thing before i had a chance), This just wasn’t as flavorful as I’d hoped. I added some soy sauce to the leftovers and this improved the taste. Sorry, but it wasn’t the hit I’d hoped for.
