Braised Pork in Vinegar

This crispy and flavorful Golden Fried Pork is a mouthwatering dish that combines tender lean pork with a perfectly spiced marinade for an irresistible crunch. Thinly sliced pork is marinated in a blend of vinegar, sugar, cooking wine, light soy sauce, and aromatic five-spice powder, enhanced by a fragrant ginger-garlic paste for depth of flavor. After soaking up the marinade, the pork is coated in a light, crispy batter made with egg white, sweet potato starch, and cornstarch, then fried to golden perfection. The result? Juicy, tender meat with a satisfyingly crisp exterior. The secret lies in the double-starch coating, ensuring an extra-crunchy texture, while the balanced marinade adds a savory-sweet tang. Perfect as a main dish or appetizer, this fried pork is a crowd-pleaser that’s easy to make yet delivers restaurant-quality taste. Serve hot for the ultimate crispy bite!
