    Utensils Used
    | 1. Deep fry pork in batches in 350 degree oil. | 2. Drain, blot and set aside while making sauce. | 3. (Suggestion: partially cook pork at 325; drain& let it cool for 15- 20 minutes. Bring oil temp up to 375 and finish cooking pork. This gives you a moist but thoroughly cooked inside and a golden, crispy coating). | 4. For sauce: brown garlic in a little oil; discard. | 5. Give the sauce ingredients a good stir, pour into the pan and bring to a boil. | 6. Stir in binder a little at a time to thicken and clear using just enough to get the job done. | 7. Stir in pineapple, then pork to heat. | 8. Note: If using green pepper, stir it in with the garlic. | 9. It cooks in about a minute on high heat. | 10. Note: The oil should be cooled enough so that you can handle it. | 11. Strain into a container and save for the next use. | 12. You can refresh it next time by putting in a slice or two of ginger when it's hot. | 13. That gets rid of any strong odors. | 14. Discard ginger. | 15. Note: cooking temperatures are approximate. | 16. Use your judgement and experience as a guide. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
