|
 |
|
|
|
|
| |
| 1 lb. (500g) lean and fat
boneless pork |
| 1 tsp. salt or to taste |
| 2 eggs, beaten |
| 3 tbsp plus 1 tsp. ( 50g )cornstarch
(corn-flour) |
| 1 medium green pepper |
| 7 oz (200g) bamboo shoots
|
| 4 cups (1 litre) vegetable
oil for deep-frying |
| 4tsp garlic, sliced |
| 2 tbsp scallions, chopped
|
| For the sauce |
| 4 1/2 tbsp sugar |
| 3 tbsp vinegar |
| 2 tsp. soy sauce |
| 2 tbsp tomato ketchup |
| 1 cup (120ml) water |
| 1/4 tsp. salt, or to taste
|

 Wash the pork and cut into diamond-shaped
slices about 1 inch (25mm) long.
Mix with the salt and let stand
for 15minutes, then mix well with
the eggs and dry cornstarch.
- Halve vertically, seed and wash
the green pepper. Cut the green
pepper and the bamboo shoots into
diamond shapes, the same size
as the pork . Set aside.
- Heat the oil in a wok over medium
heat to very hot, about 375oF
(190oC). Deep-fry the
pork slices until they turn golden
brown and float to the surface.
Drop the bamboo shoots into the
oil and remove immediately, along
with the pork. Drain well and
set aside.
- Make the sweet-and-sour sauce
in another pot.
- Pour the oil out of the wok,
leaving only enough to cover the
bottom, about 2 tbsp. Heat to
very hot, or until the oil surface
ripples. Add the garlic and stir-fry
. Then add the scallions and green
pepper to blend and add to the
wok. Cook, stirring, until thickened.
Add the pork. Stir to coat thoroughly.
Remove and serve.
