Ingredients

Method
  • 1 x 400 g can pineapple pieces
  • 2 T soya sauce
  • 1 T white wine vinegar
  • 2 T tomato sauce
  • 1 t brown sugar
  • 2 red chillies, chopped
  • 1 green chilli, chopped
  • 1 star anise
  • 1 kg pork loin chops
  • Salad, for serving

Blend the pineapple, soya sauce, vinegar, tomato sauce and sugar until smooth. Add the chillies and star anise and mix well.

Pour the marinade over the chops in a ceramic dish. Cover with clingwrap and chill for 3 hours or overnight.

Place the meat on a preheated grid and braai over medium coals for 20 minutes or until cooked, turning halfway. Serve with salad.

Cook's note: I can't resist making this version of sweet-and-sour pork on the braai.

    Could I do these chops in the oven?

      Hi Dalene

      You sure can! Just pop them in at 200 degrees for 10-15 minutes. Keep basting them with the marinade though.

      Enjoy!
