Don't get me wrong, I still believe that deep-fried works best for sweet and sour pork. Nothing compares to the thick crunchy bite coming from a deep-fried way of cooking. However, it's not like we always want to use up a wok full of oil just for a dish or two. Air-frying can be one alternative, but I'm more of a deep-fry or sear type of person.

Instructions to make Healthy Sweet and Sour Pork Made Without Deep Frying:
  1. Chop the pork into 2.5 cm cubes (about 1-1.5 cm thick). Combine the ❍ marinade ingredients and marinate the pork for about 15 minutes.
  2. Roughly chop the green pepper, onion, bamboo shoot, and carrot. Chop the rehydrated shiitake mushroom and pineapple into 6-8 equal pieces.
  3. Combine the ● seasoning ingredients. Adjust the taste before adding the katakuriko.
  4. Boil the water, then add the salt (for boiling), and start by cooking the carrots.
  5. When the carrots are almost cooked through (70%), add the shiitake and bamboo shoots and boil for 2-3 minutes.
  6. After 2-3 minutes, add the green peppers and boil for 1 minute. Drain, then soak in water to cool. This will fix the bright color of the green peppers.
  7. Carefully drain the moisture from the marinated pork. Put the katakuriko in a plastic bag, add the pork, seal the bag and shake it up and down to evenly coat the pork.
  8. Since you will be frying the pork without oil, lay a sheet of parchment paper in the frying pan. If the pork is thick, cover with a lid to cook (over low heat).
  9. Once the pork cooks to a golden brown, turn them over to cook the other side. Remove the sheet once they cook through. Alternatively, if you're not concerned about calorie intake, deep fry the pork.
  10. In the same frying pan, add vegetable oil, and sauté the onions. Since you'll be using just a little bit of the oil, they may stick to the pan, but try not to add extra oil at this point.
  11. Once the onions are lightly cooked, add the boiled vegetables and seasoning ingredients (the katakuriko will have settled to the bottom, so mix it up before adding).
  12. Once the soup comes to a boil, add the pork, mix, and then it's done.
  13. Drizzle with plenty of the thick sauce.

However, it's not like we always want to use up a wok full of oil just for a dish or two. Air-frying can be one alternative, but I'm more of a deep-fry or sear type of person. Add in sugar, vinegar, and soy sauce. Put the pork in a ziplock bag or a bowl with corn starch to get that crispy coating without deep frying. With the right touch, corn starch and a hot oven can make anything taste deep fried.
