Sweet Meat and rice

Tonight for dinner.. i'm making sweet meat with rice. It is a simple , flavorful asian dish.. that is a HUGE hit with my family and friends.

INGREDIENTS:
boneless pork ( you can use pork stew meat which is already chopped for you, or regular boneless pork chops.. and cut the meat into cubes or strips. ) * tonight I am using just the chops *

5-7 cloves of garlic, minced or grated.

2/3 cup sugar

1/2 cup soy sauce

And however much rice you need for your family.

DIRECTIONS:
In a mixing bowl, combine garlic, sugar, and soy sauce. Stir. Cut up your pork and put into this bowl and stir all together. Let soak and marinade in fridge for about an hour.. or longer for more flavor. Put your rice in the rice cooker, or however you make ur rice. Get a skillet nice and hot with no oil. With a spoon with drain holes.. take out each peice of pork and put into hot skillet. Stir fry until no longer pink. Once meat is getting almost done.. ( about 25 mins or so..) pour all the sauce into the skillet and stir to coat. Stir often, because if you let this stay it'll burn and taste of burnt. Stir frequently till all the sauce hardens onto meat and carmalizes. It will be red in color. immediatly pour over hot rice onto your plates. I love to eat this meal with chop stix.


ENJOY!! and please please please, leave me a comment once you've tried it!!
