SWEET CHILLI PORK

This is from the Easy Thai Cooking recipe book. I always use this recipe to use up leftover roast pork. It has become quite a favourite in our house and is simple to make. I also substitute fresh chilli with bottled chilli to save time and a special shopping trip. Without the coriander it is not quite the same. I also double the sauce ingredients to add more flavour to the rice.
