Ingredients
- 1 lb Pork loin (cut into strips)
- ½ cup Cornstarch
- 3 tablespoons Sugar
- 2 tablespoons Rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Soy sauce

Instructions

- Heat oil to 350°F (175°C). Fry the pork in batches for 5-6 minutes until golden and crispy. Drain on a rack.
- Make the sauce: In a pan, combine sugar, rice vinegar, soy sauce, and ½ cup water. Bring to a boil. Add onion and carrot. Cook for 3 minutes. Mix 1 tablespoon cornstarch with 2 tablespoons water, stir in to thicken.
