First, coat the meat cubes in flour. The meat cubes should be coated with egg yolk liquid first, and then rolled in cornstarch (starch) so that they are evenly coated with a layer of cornstarch (starch).
Corn starch is more suitable for cornstarch.
Flour can also be used.
Second, after the sweet and sour sauce is cooked, you must first thicken it and cook the juice to a thick consistency, then add the fried ingredients and stir evenly so that the sweet and sour sauce can coat the outer skin of the ingredients without destroying the crispy texture of the outer skin.

If the juice has too much water and is not thick enough, the outer skin of the fried food will soften instantly.
Third, the sweet and sour sauce should be prepared in order.
You need to put salt first. The old chef said, "If you want it to be sweet, put salt first."
First, boil salt and vinegar together to remove the sour and pungent taste, then add brown sugar. The resulting sweet and sour juice is sour, sweet and fresh.

Tips: For pork belly, try to choose sandwich meat, which has a better taste. If you don’t like fatty meat, you can also use tenderloin. The method is the same.
The meat should be deep-fried over slow fire first, and then turned to high heat and fried until golden brown. This way, the oil in the pork belly can be forced out, so that it tastes crispy on the outside and crispy on the inside without feeling greasy.
