Sweet and sour pork
I am not sure about you, but I know that I am guilty of constantly whipping up the same dishes for dinner. While my angel of a husband and kids haven’t started complaining yet, I do know that it’s only a matter of time before someone makes a snide remark!

Editor’s Note:
For the health conscious amongst you, try making these dishes using Taiwan pigs from 5 star LONG FONG FARM. The pigs are raised on a probiotic feed which increases antioxidents and boosts immunity in the pigs, hence making them less vulnerable to disesases. Taiwan probiotic pork is available in Mmmm! outlets and selected Cold Storage supermarkets.
