Ingredients (serves 4):

- 1 lb. ground pork
- 1/2 cup diced onion
- 1/2 cup diced red bell pepper
- 1/2 cup diced pineapple
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup rice vinegar
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 tbsp. cornstarch
- 1 tbsp. vegetable oil
- 8 egg roll wrappers
- Oil for frying

Cooking tips:

- Make sure to drain the pineapple well before adding it to the mixture to avoid excess moisture.
- Use a slotted spoon to remove the pork mixture from the pan to avoid excess oil in the egg rolls.
- Fry the egg rolls in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan.

Instructions:

1. In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the ground pork and cook until browned, breaking it up into small pieces as it cooks.
2. Add the onion, red bell pepper, and pineapple to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
3. In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, brown sugar, and cornstarch. Pour the mixture over the pork and vegetables and stir to combine. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the sauce has thickened.
4. Remove the pork mixture from the skillet and let it cool for a few minutes.
5. Lay out an egg roll wrapper on a flat surface. Spoon 2-3 tablespoons of the pork mixture onto the center of the wrapper. Fold the sides of the wrapper over the filling, then roll it up tightly.
6. Heat the oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 375°F. Fry the egg rolls in batches for 2-3 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
7. Serve the sweet and sour pork egg rolls hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
