SWEET AND SOUR PORK OVER RICE RECIPES

Steps:

• Mix the pork with the marinade ingredients and leave to sit for at least 15 mins, or chill for a few hours. In a separate bowl, mix all the coating ingredients. Drain any excess liquid off the pork and toss the pork in the seasoned coating. Can be done 1 hr ahead.
• To make the sauce, heat the oil in a shallow saucepan and gently fry the garlic, ginger and peppers until just starting to soften. Now drop in all the rest of the ingredients except the sesame seeds. Bring everything to the boil and cook for a few mins until thickened, then take off the heat. To make the batter, whisk the flours and baking powder together with 200ml water to a smooth paste.
• Heat the oil in a deep-fat fryer, large saucepan or a wok to 180C or until a drop of batter sizzles and browns in 20 secs. Dip the marinated pork in the batter mix (do it in two or three batches) and let any excess drip off. Fry the pork in batches for about 5-6 mins or until golden. Remove and drain on kitchen paper until all the batches are done. Make sure you bring the oil back to the correct temperature between each batch. Coat the crispy pork in the sauce, then sprinkle over the sesame seeds, coriander and serve with rice or noodles.

Steps:

• If the recipe in advance is desired to prepare, I suggest cooking the sauce, and start the first cooking pork fritters. Then at the last second, finish with the second frying and pour sauce to coat everything! Start by cutting the roast pork into pieces of a size suitable for bites. Pour the clear soy sauce, Chinese wine, powder 5 spice, baking soda and cornstarch. Let cool at least one hour.
• Pour all the sauce ingredients except the cornstarch and water.
• Add vegetables, peppers, onions and pineapple. Put on low heat for ten minutes just to cook the onion and peppers. So you can cook a little more or a little less.
• Add to the end of these 10 minutes, the cornflour and 50g of water if the sauce thickens too much.
• Cook one minute and stop the fire.
• Prepare the batter for pork. Combine flour, cornstarch, egg white.
• Add hot water gradually to obtain a smooth paste. Too dry or too wet. Pour this batter over pork.
• Heat oil in a wok or saucepan. When the oil is hot, add the pork pieces one by one. Do not put too much pork pan simultaneously. Cook two or three times!
• Turn pieces of browned on all sides. Set aside each time on a paper towel while the other pieces cook. Once everything is cooked, allow the oil to warm up a little and then add all at once. We will fry again to make the extra-crispy pork !! Yum!
• Drain the oil from the wok into another container (an empty pan) and put the fried pork pieces into the wok, pour over donuts sweet and sour sauce.
• Cook just to warm up the sauce. Serve immediately with rice.
