1. Prepare the Pork:

   • In a bowl, mix the pork pieces with a pinch of salt and pepper. Set up a breading station with three bowls: one with cornstarch, one with beaten eggs, and one with flour.

2. Coat the Pork:

   • Dip each piece of pork first into the cornstarch, then into the beaten eggs, and finally coat it with flour. Ensure each piece is evenly coated for a crispy texture.

3. Heat the Oil:

   • In a deep skillet or wok, heat enough vegetable oil over medium-high heat for deep frying. The oil should be hot enough (around 350°F or 175°C) to sizzle when you add the pork.

4. Fry the Pork:

   • Carefully add the coated pork pieces in batches, avoiding overcrowding. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 4-5 minutes. Remove the pork and drain on paper towels.

5. Stir-Fry the Vegetables:

   • In the same skillet, drain excess oil, leaving about 1 tablespoon. Add the diced onion and bell pepper, stir-frying for 2-3 minutes until they are slightly tender. Add the pineapple chunks and stir for another minute.

6. Prepare the Sauce:

   • In a small saucepan, combine sugar, vinegar, ketchup, and soy sauce. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Add the cornstarch-water mixture and stir until the sauce thickens.

7. Combine Everything:

   • Pour the sweet and sour sauce over the stir-fried vegetables in the skillet. Stir well to coat the veggies. Gently add the fried pork, tossing everything together until the pork is well coated in the sauce.

8. Serve:

   • Remove from heat and transfer to a serving dish. Serve hot over steamed rice or with fried rice, allowing everyone to enjoy the colorful and flavorful combination.

Serving Suggestions:

Sweet and Sour Pork pairs wonderfully with jasmine rice or fried rice. You can also serve it with a side of stir-fried vegetables for a balanced meal. The bright colors and flavors make it a perfect dish for family gatherings or special occasions.
