Dish #8 - Sweet n Sour Pork

Mummy: i dun really know hw to make the sauce for this dish so i cheated. Yes, i cheated. I bot the ready made sauce from Lee Kum Kee (李锦记). But the ingredients used are from some recipes i look thru myself. Errmm...so happens some of it are abt the same ingredients as stated on the sauce packet. :P i suppose its all standardised. Hehe.

Ingredients:

- pork cubes but i used sliced lean meat here.

- 1 green bell pepper - seeds removed & sliced

- small onions - chunks

- a little of sliced ginger

- pineapple chunks - water drained. i bot those canned ones

- corn flour for dusting

- 1 beaten egg* ( sort of wasted here cos the instructions says only to use 1 tbsp)

- 1 tsp sugar*

- 1/2 tsp salt*

From left (clockwise): green bell peppers & onions, beaten egg, lean meat, pineapple cubes

Preparations:
Marinate* pork slices for abt 1/2 hr. Dust with corn flour. Heat wok with oil. Saute ginger slices till golden brown or fragrant. Add in pork slices & stir fry till cooked. Remove.

Saute bell peppers, onions & pineapple chunks. Add Lee Kum Kee Sauce & bring it to a boil. Add in pork slices & mix well.

End product does nt look appetising ya? I know. But the taste still nt bad la. Except some commented dat the pork slices too big le; shd cut smaller. :P

** I decided nt to use pork for future cooking le cos well, somehow, i dun feel comfortable using them & i'm nt sure they can be well cooked. As in the case for this dish, when i tried after cooking, i found dat the pork pieces were nt well cooked; a pork smell still lingers. I hv to refry again :( **
