Penny, I tried this today using pork instead and without the chilli. It still tastes good. To add more color to the food, we can also have cucumber and pineapple added in when doing up the sauce. With that, it will turn out to be like the sweet & sour pork that we eat in restaurants. Thanks for the great recipe.

yes joyce, put more effort on the deco, will make the food even yummy. i've always wanted to do so, but everytime after cooking, very rush, so end up forget about it.
the chilli sauce is to enhance the colour of the gravy i guess, with or without still ok.
my hubby loves this too... ;)
