NOTES:
  1. Pork:

    loin is preferred for this dish for fast cooking. Sirloin end roast, pork chops or any other part of the loin.
  2. Black Vinegar:

    Chinkiang Vinegar is considered best, Gold Plum being a good brand. In a pinch use Balsamic vinegar - a bit too sweet and sophisticated but it'll do. For details see Chinese Vinegars.
  3. U.S. measure: t=teaspoon, T=Tablespoon, c=cup, qt=quart, oz=ounce, #=pound, cl=clove in=inch tt=to taste ar=as required
