Instructions

Working time approx. 25 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 15 minutes; Total time approx. 40 minutes

Cut the meat into thin strips. Mix well with 1 teaspoon of salt, 1 teaspoon of soy sauce, egg white, cornstarch, and a little water. Fry quickly in plenty of oil until crispy and brown, then keep warm. Quarter, deseed, and dice the peppers. Dice the onion, peel and core the pineapple, and slice the flesh. Peel the ginger and slice it finely. Sauté the onion and peppers in a hot pan, stirring occasionally. Add the ginger and sauté briefly. Add the orange juice, vinegar, ketchup, and honey to the pan. Bring to a boil, add the pineapple and meat, and simmer for 5 minutes. Season sparingly with salt and pepper. This goes particularly well with basmati rice or jasmine rice.
