Sweet and Sour Pork

sweet and sour

I got curious and bought a carton of unsweetened Almond Coconut Milk and of course I don’t like that ‘coconuty’ flavor. So nobody’s going to drink that milk.

The sweet and sour pork batter probably needs less than an egg, as I don’t really like too much flour in the pork. So, I combine two problems and created a solution.

I made a sweet and sour pork batter out of the almond coconut milk. The result is awesome and probably one of the best batters I have made. They say necessity is the mother of invention. Probably not wanting to waste is also a mother of invention of a different kind.

Here’s a really simple recipe, and the almond coconut milk makes the dish special. If you don’t have that, then just milk or egg will do as great.
