Ingredients

• 500 grams pork tenderloin
• 2 ripe mango
• 1 red bell pepper
• 1 green bell pepper
• 1 yellow onion
• 3 tablespoons cornstarch
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 3 tablespoons ketchup
• 120 milliliters pineapple juice (or water)
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
• 2 green onions (for garnish)
• 1 teaspoon sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Slice the pork tenderloin into thin, bite-sized strips and place in a bowl.

Step 2

Add 1 tablespoon of cornstarch and 2 tablespoons of soy sauce to the pork. Mix well to coat and set aside to marinate for 10-15 minutes.

Step 3

Peel and dice the mangoes into cubes. Set aside.

Step 4

Cut the red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and onion into bite-sized chunks. Set aside.

Step 5

In a small bowl, whisk together the rice vinegar, brown sugar, ketchup, pineapple juice (or water), and the remaining 1 tablespoon of soy sauce to make the sweet and sour sauce.

Step 6

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.

Step 7

Add the marinated pork to the skillet and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, or until the pork is cooked through and slightly browned. Remove the pork from the skillet and set aside.

Step 8

Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the skillet. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 9

Add the bell peppers and onion to the skillet. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.

Step 10

Return the cooked pork to the skillet and pour in the sweet and sour sauce. Stir to combine.

Step 11

In a small bowl, mix the remaining 2 tablespoons of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water to create a slurry.

Step 12

Pour the cornstarch slurry into the skillet and stir until the sauce thickens, about 1-2 minutes.

Step 13

Gently fold in the mango cubes and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to warm them through.

Step 14

Remove the skillet from heat and garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds, if using.

Step 15

Serve hot over steamed rice or noodles and enjoy your Sweet and Sour Mango Pork!
