  2. Dip the marinated meat into the beaten egg and coat with plain flour. Make sure that the meat does not coat extra flour that it can. Under medium heat, fry the coated meat cubes for about 3-5 minutes or about 80% cooked. Sieve. 腌好的肉加打匀的鸡蛋,拌匀。把肉块在面粉里滚一圈,使其均匀的粘一层面粉。放在筛网里抖掉多余的粉。过油中火炸3-5分钟至8成熟。捞出沥干油备用
  3. Now to make the sweet and sour sauce, mix tomato sauce, rice vinegar, light soya sauce, sugar and water. Prepare the cornstarch mixture. 番茄酱3汤匙(45ml),米醋2汤匙(30ml),生抽1汤匙(15ml),糖1汤匙,清水100ml,调匀成料汁备用。水淀粉备用。

  5. Pour in fried meat, together with pineapple cubes and both peppers. Stir quickly, as we only want to coat with the sauce. 倒入肉,菠萝,青红椒迅速翻炒,使其均匀的挂上粘汁即可
