Ingredients:
Amount Ingredient
1 lb Lean and fat boneless pork
2 tsp Salt, or to taste
2 x Eggs, beaten
3 tbl Plus
1 tsp Dry cornstarch (corn-flour)
1 med Green pepper
7 oz Bamboo shoots
4 cup Vegetable oil for deep-frying
4 tsp Garlic, sliced
2 tbl Scallions, chopped
----------------- FOR THE SAUCE ----------------
1/2 tbl Sugar
3 tbl Vinegar
2 tsp Soy sauce
2 tbl Tomato ketchup
1 cup Water
1/4 tsp Salt, or to taste
2 tsp Cornstarch (cornflour) dissolved in
Instructions:
Instructions: 1. Wash the pork and cut into diamond-shaped slices about 1 inch long. Mix with the salt and let stand for 15 minutes, then mix well with the eggs and dry cornstarch.

2. Halve vertically, seed and wash the green pepper. Cut the green pepper and the bamboo shoots into diamond shapes, the same size as the pork. Set aside.

3. Heat the oil in a wok over medium heat to very hot, about 375. Deep-fry the pork slices until they turn golden brown and float to the surface. Drop the bamboo shoots into the oil and remove immediately, along with the pork.

Drain well and set aside.

4. Make the sweet-and-sour sauce in another pot.

5. Pour the oil out of the wok, leaving only enough to cover the bottom, about 2 tbsp. Heat to very hot, or until the oil surface ripples. Add the garlic and and stir-fry. Then add the scallions and green pepper and stir-fry for 1 minute. Add the sweet-and-sour sauce and bring to a boil.

Stir the dissolved cornstarch to blend and add to the wok. Cook, stirring, until thickened. Add the pork. Stir to coat thoroughly. Remove and serve.
