Ingredients needed 2 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Do not season the pork beforehand—this keeps the focus on the sauce and results in cleaner flavor and presentation.
  • Double-frying the pork—first to set, then again after drying—creates a much crispier and chewier texture.
  • Avoid overcooking the vegetables in the sauce, as they may discolor; prepare the sauce quickly right after frying the pork.

Recommended for

  • Those looking to prepare a special dish or a children's snack.
  • Fans of tangy-sweet and crispy Chinese fried dishes.
