This recipe is a great starting point, but I made a few changes to suit my taste. I used a different type of vinegar, and I added some pineapple and green bell pepper to the sauce. It turned out great!

This sweet and sour pork is a winner! The sauce is perfectly balanced, with just the right amount of sweetness, sourness, and tang. The pork is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. I served it with rice and vegetables, and it was a hit wit
