oh my! that is an interesting combination of flavours. I love sweet and sour dishes.
This dish seems to have just arrived from the east. Performed very well. Beautiful colors. And I imagine delicious!
I need to make these for sure. I’m pretty sure I’d love them. I tend to love sweet and sour chicken, so I can almost bet I’d gobble these up.
I love everything Sweet ‘n’ Sour! I’ll give these a shot for sure!
Ok now these sound a delicious idea! I bet the pineapple adds a lovely flavour and my other half is such a fan of sweet and sour.

That looks delish!! I can’t wait to try it. Have you tried different variations like a keto version? I am just getting into keto.
Just started keto too but doing the keto on steroids for dr.Berg . No dairy, only fatty meats and 67-75gms fat per day plus its zero carbs not counting the veggies. I made this for my family but had the pork on its own.
The sweat and sour sauce sounds so yummy. I do love pineapple so I need to make these.
Pineapple and pork is such a delicious combination! I will look forward to trying this for sure 🙂

These look so delicious and my family loves meatballs. Can’t wait to try.
I don’t eat meat, but my family does. I’m sure they would love this dish.
I am not a big fan of cooking and neither am I good at it. But then my doctor said that I should start cooking myself and should avoid outside food. This recipe looks like a lot of fun I am going to give it a shot

Thank you so much.
The sauce of this recipe sounds so delicious. I do like sweet and sour together. I would probably leave out the sugar though, I think the pineapple juice is sweet enough.
I love anything sweet and sour! And it’s has pineapples ! Yummmmm
Omg this looks really good. I love the combination of sweet and sour and the addition of pineapples in this dish.
Though I don’t eat pork, this looks really fresh and uncomplicated…could very well work as comfort food.
