  We enjoyed this recipe. Not being pork fans here I substituted the pork steaks for chicken fillets and it worked very well. I also served it with couscous.

  It doesn't seem to be said how much you need of soy sauce - just 1 tbsp. It's very easy and tasty - gives the pork juicy spiced taste. Excellent

  This was a great mid-week supper. Served it with home-grown baby new potatoes and carrots. It was easy to make just half for two people.

  Used pork shoulder steaks which were a little tough with quick cooking. And had to remove the pork to fry rather than boil, when pineapple added. Will try with chicken breast next time as above

  This recipe was amazing! I think nexct time I would use less chilli powder but that is just a personal preference - absolutely gorgeous, served it with cabbage and jacket potatoes which soaked up the sauce nicely.

  Can anyone confirm how much soy sauce is used in this recipe as it seems to have been missed out of the ingedients list? Thank you!!

  Gorgeous recipe, loved by the whole family. Great with cous cous or boiled rice, and the sauce is a great marinade for other meat too!

  I am not a fan of Chinese 5-spice so I leave this out, but instead of chilli flakes I cook the pork with fresh chilli which makes it a little spicier. I also serve with rice that I cook with extra veg (chopped peppers onions etc) to increase the 5-a-day, and chuck in a handful of savoy cabbage at the end (if you don't have chinese greens) A popluar mid-week supper at our house!

  I made this when we had friends to stay and everyone enjoyed it. I used pork fillet and this worked very well. I served it with rice and green beans. I shall definitely make it again.

  Simple yet great recipe. Used 600g pork filet mignon (best cut and very tender) for the recipe. Added 1 tbst oyster sauce to balance the sweetness out. Served with rice and a crisp Vietnamese salad. Yummy!

  This is really quick and so delicious. I make it with Mary Cadogan's ginger rice from her "Grilled chilli & coriander salmon with ginger rice" recipe, the flavours work beautifully together and the rice soaks up all the sweet spicy sauce. Yum! The quantity of soy is included in the recipe in the May or June magazine. I'll try to find it and let you know :)

  I cooked the pork differently, putting the pork into a deep casserole dish and cooking in the oven for a total of 35mins uncovered on 200c or fan 180. The first 10 mins on its own and then add the combined other ingrediants and add the pineapple rings on top for the last 10 mins. The sauce is more like gravy this way and is excellent with veg and jacket potato. I might try adding 1tsp ground ginger next time but really loved the way it was.
