Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 lb pork medallions
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 tablespoon water
1 egg, beaten
1/4 cup cornstarch
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 green bell pepper, chopped
1 red chili pepper, chopped
1/2 cup crushed pineapple
1 onion, chopped
1 tomatoes, chopped
4 tablespoons white sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
4 tablespoons white vinegar
3 tablespoons ketchup
2 tablespoons plum sauce
5 tablespoons water

Steps:

  • Arrange pork medallions on a cutting board and cover with a sheet of plastic wrap. Using a mallet or the back of a knife, pound the pork until each medallion is fairly flat, about 1/4 inch thick.
  • Cut each medallion into 1 inch square pieces. In a medium bowl, combine the salt, baking soda and water. Place the pork pieces in the bowl and turn to coat, remove and coat with the beaten egg.
  • Place the cornstarch in a large, resealable plastic bag. Place the pork pieces in the bag with the flour and shake the meat around until all the pieces are coated with the flour.
  • Heat the oil in a large skillet or wok over medium high heat. Place the pork pieces in the oil and fry for 5 to 10 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove the pork from the oil and set aside.
  • In the same skillet over medium high heat, combine the green bell pepper, red chile pepper, pineapple, onion and tomato and saute for 5 minutes.
  • To make the sauce:.
  • In a separate small bowl, combine the white sugar, salt, cornstarch, vinegar, ketchup, plum sauce and water. Mix well and pour this into the skillet with the vegetables.
  • Reduce heat to low and let simmer for 5 to 10 minutes, allowing the gravy to thicken. Return the pork pieces to the skillet, mix all together well.
  • Serve over rice.
