I’ve been using this recipe for decades. It’s from a cool book called The Wok. It’s very very good.
Ingredients:
8 oz. boneless pork
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. light soy sauce
flour
egg yolk
1 firm 3″ tomato
1 3″ onion
green pepper
12 pineapple chunks
1/2 cup “sweet and sour” sauce
Cut boneless pork into 3/4″ cubes. Season with salt and soy sauce. Roll in flour. Roll in egg yolk. Roll again in flour. Deep fry until done at 320 degrees (2-3 minutes). Cut tomato and onion into 8 parts. Chop green pepper into 3/4″ squares – color only.
When the pork is done, drain it. Using the same wok, brown onion and pepper in 1 tbsp. oil for 1 minute. Add in tomato and pineapple chunks, cook for 5 seconds. Add the deep fried pork and take away from the heat. Mix well and serve immediately.
“Sweet and Sour” sauce
Ingredients:
1 cup malt vinegar
1 cup sugar
1 1/2 tbsp. salt
1/2 cup orange juice
1/2 cup pineapple juice

Adjust the seasoning for harmony and balance.
Add cornstarch to thicken.
