Ingredients
For the Sweet and Sour Sauce
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 3 tbsp rice vinegar
- 4 tbsp ketchup
- ⅓ cup brown sugar
Everything Else
- 650 grams pork shoulder cut into ½ to 1-inch pieces
- ⅓ cup cornstarch
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp salt
- ½ tsp ground pepper
- 2-3 shallots cut into 1 inch pieces
- 2 red bell peppers seeds removed, cut into 1 inch pieces
- 1½ cup pineapple chunks
- oil for pan frying
Instructions
- Combine the soy sauce, rice vinegar, brown sugar, and ketchup in a small bowl and set aside.
- Mix together the cornstarch, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
- Coat the cut pork in the cornstarch mixture.
- Add around 2 tablespoons of oil to a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the coated pork. Cook the pork until has browned, about 2 minutes per side. Set aside the pork on a paper towel-lined plate and wipe down the skillet.
- Add a splash of oil to the skillet and saute the shallots and bell pepper for a minute before adding the sauce. Let simmer for a minute.
