Sweet and Sour Pork over White Rice. Great and Easy dinner recipe.

"I made this tonight for my boyfriend an myself. I didn't use cornstarch cause I didn't have any.. At first it tasted kind of bland to us the way the receipe was set up. So we added a lot more ketchup, and added a lot more hot sauce. I also added onions an pineapples as well. All in all a really good meal." - Giggles0309

    This recipe was so easy and good. Did add extra ketchup and soy sauce. Didn't add hot sauce and ended up fine. I just added the cornstarch in with the ketchup and soy and just poured it over and let it thicken. Will definitely make again. I work with the elderly and not one complaint.

    Made it at home for my other half. Will try this recipe at the firehouse and see if they like us also.

    Was great. Even the finicky husband and step son loved it! Definitely winner. I left out the hot sauce for the kids.

    Whole family loved the recipe. I made it with chicken instead of pork. Also added red peppers and onions.

    I really like this because the flavor is nice and subtle - not overly vinegary like some of the other sweet & sour recipes I've tried. BOTH of my kids enjoyed it, which is saying something!!

    Love this recipe, can't wait to make again.

    I never use exact measurements, just guesstimate. Works out good everytime!

    I made this last night with some modifications as I didn't have canned pineapple, but I had fresh pineapple and orange juice. Turned out great and was so yummy. I didn't use exact measurements either as I had a lot more pork to work with, but it was a great recipe to start with. Thanks.

    I used whole boneless pork ribs to start with. You should definately use a smaller cut to start out. The sauce is spot on and very easy to adjust for taste!

    Serve over white rice, and its a very good recipe. [I posted this recipe.]
