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. 1

    In 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. 2

    In the mean time, prepare the sauce by whisking together all of the sauce ingredients in a bowl. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Using 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. 4

    Once 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. 5

    Add the pork pieces back to the skillet. Toss well to coat with the sauce. Continue to cook until the sauce has thickened. Serve immediately.
