SWEET AND SOUR PORK 
3/4 lb. pork butt or left over pork from chops or roast
1 sm. green pepper, cut in strips
1 lg. tomato cut in wedges
3/4 c. chunk pineapple
1 sm. can mandarin oranges
Cooked rice to serve 4 to 6.

1/4 c. catsup
1/4 c. vinegar
6 tbsp. sugar
2 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
Dash of Tabasco
1 tsp. soy sauce
1 tbsp. cornstarch in 2 tbsp. water

If using fresh pork, trim fat from meat and cut thin strips into 1" squares. Cook meat in small amount of hot oil in a large fry pan for 10 to 15 minutes or until done. Drain fat from pan.

If using cooked left over pork, trim excess fat and cut into 1" chunks. Place in a large fry pan. No need to heat.

Prepare sauce by combining all ingredients, except cornstarch in water, in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil and simmer 1 minute. Slowly add cornstarch and water mixture and stir and cook until thickened. Add green pepper to sauce and cook 1 minute.

Transfer sauce mixture to fry pan with meat. Add tomato, pineapple and mandarin oranges and heat through. Serve over rice.

This is an EXCELLENT recipe, my husband loved it and did not even know it was the left over roast from the night before! I did not have mandarins handy so omitted this from the recipe. Also, I used the pineapple juice from the tinned pineapples (instead of water) in the sauce. YUM!

I just prepared this for our lunch using leftover fried pork chops and it is so good. I served it over brown rich. I will try it next using leftover chicken.

Excellent recipe. Made a double batch of the sauce because I had extra pork and it was wonderful. Thank you. Will certainly use this recipe again.
