Saucy pork with fried potato is an appetising dish - I love that sweet, hot and sour sauce and the potato with the crispy exterior and soft centre.  This goes really well with steamed rice. Alternatively, add more potatoes to make it a meal on its own.I had some leftover (all the potatoes were gone by then) and cooked it with some noodles (add another tablespoon of tomato ketchup) the next day. It was delish !
