Recently I made “su-buta” 酢豚 (sweet & sour pork) for dinner. Really authentic, and easy to make.
I found the recipe online, but it went something like this:
- Marinate some pork in soy sauce, cooking sake and vegetable oil, then coat in cornflour, deep fry in cooking oil before setting aside
- Make a cooking sauce of vinegar (sour), sugar (sweet), soy sauce, chicken stock and water
- Cook some veggies in frypan, then add the pork
- Pour the cooking sauce over the lot, and after a few minutes, add a small amount of cornflour to let the sauce thicken.
- Finished!
