3. In a wok, add a small amount of oil and heat over medium-low fire, stir fry tomato sauce until red oil is released, then add brown sugar, white vinegar, salt, make sweet and sour sauce, finally pour in water starch to thicken, add pineapple cubes and mix well.

Tips:
When you can't get pineapples, this dish can also be made with canned pineapple, which has a slightly sweeter taste but not bitter, so reduce the amount of sugar or increase the white vinegar. Soak fresh pineapple in salty water for 20 minutes before cooking or eating to destroy the pineapple enzyme;
The final braising process must be quick; the pork pieces should remain crispy after they are served out, so the seasoning sauce should be tasted and thickened properly before adding the meat. If you add ingredients one by one with seasonings, the meat will easily become soft.
Try to use pork that is evenly fat-marbled, as frying it twice will release some moisture; using all lean meat will make the meat too tough.
