Shanghai Style Pork Chops image

This is a recipe I received from my husband when we got married. It had been given to him from his seminary days when he shared a house with a married couple. This was a recipe he actually prepared himself way back before I knew him. He has since happily given up all cooking responsibilities to me! I've tweaked the sauce just a bit - it has a nice, spicy flavor.

Steps:

  • Over low flame, heat sauce in a large skillet, stirring about 2 minutes till thickened.

I would love to try this recipe, but I don't have a wok. Can I use a regular frying pan instead?

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover pork chops. I always have a few pork chops left over after I make a roast, and this recipe is a perfect way to use them up.

These pork chops were a little bland for my taste, but I think that's just because I didn't use enough spices.

This recipe was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think I just added too much sugar.
