Simple Tasty Sweet and Sour Pork

Simple Sweet and Sour Pork

This morning we eat rice with sweet and sour pork for breakfast and took the rest to work for lunch. My wife and I woke up quite early this morning. So, we decided to have a heavier breakfast to prepare the kids for a long day in school. Anticipating that they have several extracurricular activities after school and will be back only after six in the evening, we wanted them to eat right. And with the extras from the breakfast, we packed into their lunch.

Simple Recipe

We also supplemented this morning's breakfast with fried vegetable spring rolls. I have bought some frozen spring rolls from Foody Supermarket about a week ago. This was another easy and quick dish to prepare. All we had to do was fry them in a pot of hot cooking oil and serve when ready. And the kids loved these vegetable spring rolls. In comparison, the Sweet and Sour Pork required a little more time for preparation but still manageable in that time frame.

Vegetable Spring Rolls

I followed a simple recipe for the Sweet and Sour Pork. Initially, I prepared about two pounds of pork sliced into three to four inch strips, and one whole onion also cut into strips. (Can also add different color capsicums) Then, in the wok, drop two spoons of cooking oil, and a pinch of chopped garlic. Once the garlic turns golden brown, add the meat and the onions. Allow the ingredients, especially the meat to cook for about two minutes. Then, add two spoons of sugar, one spoon of honey, a squeeze of lemon and a pinch of salt for taste.
