Instructions

Double-fry and sauce on side(30 min)

Coat pork strips in a potato starch batter (starch + water, rested then drained of water). Double-fry: 325°F for 3 min, rest, then 375°F for 2 min until shatteringly crispy. Make sauce: simmer ketchup, vinegar, sugar, and pineapple chunks. SERVE SAUCE ON THE SIDE for dipping — Korean style keeps it crispy.

Pro Tips for Western Kitchens

Serving sauce on the side is the Korean way. Chinese-American sweet and sour pours sauce on top, making it soggy. Dipping preserves the crunch.
