Chinese sweet dishes
Preparation Work:
1. Clean the lean pork with water. Then cut it into thin slices and put them onto a plate.
2. Clean the peeled pineapple, and then cut into slices or cubes. Place on a separate plate.
3. Discard the seeds from the chili, then clean with water. Cut into chunks and place onto a plate.
Methods:
|
STEP Add some cooking wine, salt, egg white and cornstarch to the lean pork slices. Mix together until all the meat pieces are fully coated. Leave it stand for about 10-15 minutes. |
|
Add some tomato ketchup, soy sauce, white sugar, salt, white vinegar and cornstarch into a small bowl. Stir them well until well mixed and set aside. |

Place a wok over high heat until hot. Add some cooking oil, and then add in the lean pork slices one by one. When they turn yellowish-white, remove them from the heat and directly transfer them into a colander. Add the fried slices back in to the oil when it is hot (The lean pork has to be fried twice to make it crisp on the outside and tender on the inside). Turn off the heat, and remove the slices from the wok when they turn golden. Leave some oil in the wok, and turn on the heat to hot. Add the green and red chili chunks, and add a little bit of salt. Stir-fry until 70-80% cooked, and then remove from the wok. |
|
Add some cooking oil into the wok again and turn on the heat. Pour in the seasoning sauce prepared in step 2, add in the stir-fried green and red chili chunks and fried lean pork slices. Stir-fry them for about 1 minute when fully coated with the sauce. Add the pineapple slices or cubes. Stir-fry for about 30 seconds. Turn off the heat. |

Serve in a fine porcelain plate. Now the recipe comes to an end. Sweet and Sour Pork with Pineapple is ready to eat. |
