📝 Ingredients

  • 2 pounds boneless pork loin chops, (see notes)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons corn starch
  • 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 3 tablespoons ketchup
  • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
  • 1 tablespoon chili sauce
  • 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 3 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
  • 3 tablespoons sugar
  • 4 tablespoons water
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil

👨‍🍳 Instructions

  1. 1In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the marinade ingredients. Add the pounded pork pieces and toss to completely coat. Cover and marinade for 30 minutes.
  2. 2In the mean time, prepare the sauce by whisking together all of the sauce ingredients in a bowl. Set aside.
  3. 3Using a large skillet, add a little bit of the vegetable oil and fry the pork pieces in small batches in a single layer. Over medium heat, fry each piece for 3 minutes per side. Transfer cooked pork to a paper towel lined plate until all of the pork has been fried. (You can add a little bit of oil after each batch - you may or may not use up the entire 1/4 cup.)
  4. 4Once all the pork has been fried and set aside, pour the sauce into the skillet and over medium heat, bring the sauce to a slight boil.
  5. 5Add the pork pieces back to the skillet. Toss well to coat with the sauce. Continue to cook until the sauce has thickened. Serve immediately.
