Sweet and Sour Pork

The food of Thailand has, and continues to be, influenced by the cuisines of other places. There are many foods that are no different than the Chinese dishes having the same name, and most Thai people would consider them to be ordinary everyday Thai foods. This dish that we call หมูทอดปรี้ยวหวาน (Moo Tod Preow Waan, Fried Pork Sweet and Sour), is definitely not what one would think of as a traditional Thai food, but it is most certainly from Thailand. We make it here all the time.
