Sweet And Sour Pork

1. 1

   Toss the pork with 1/2 tbsp vinegar and a pinch of salt in a bowl. Mix the remaining 2 tbsp vinegar, the soy sauce, cornstarch, ketchup, 3 tbsp sugar, 1/3 cup water and 1/2 tsp salt in another ball.

2. 2

   Heat 2 tbsp peanut oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add the pork and slowly stir until it turns mostly opaque, about 2 minutes. Remove the pork with a slotted spoon and transfer to plate. Discard the oil and wipe out the skillet.

3. 3

   Heat the remaining 1 tbsp peanut oil in the skillet, then stir-fry the garlic with a pinch each of salt and sugar, 15 seconds. Add the carrots and scallions and stir-fry until crisp-tender, 2 minutes. ( add a little water if garlic sticks to the skillet) Add the pork, snow peas and soy sauce mixture: stir until the pork is cooked through and the sauce is thickened, about 3 minutes.
