Steps for cherry pork
1
Cut the tenderloin into 1.5 cm square pieces, add a little cooking wine and salt, mix well and let stand for 5 minutes.
2
Stir the dry starch with a little water into a thick starch paste (to the extent that chopsticks have resistance to mixing).
3
Pour the mixed starch paste into the diced pork and gently grasp it well with your hands. Add vinegar, white sugar, salt, 2 tablespoons of water and a little water starch in a bowl with starch paste and mix well to form a sauce.
4
Put the vegetable oil in the pan and heat it to 50% heat. Put the diced meat with the starch paste into the oil pan one by one (you can grab a handful when putting it in, twist it with your fingers and put it one by one) and fry it until it changes color and fish it out. Heat the oil again until there is no cracking sound of water, pour in the fried diced meat and fry it again until golden brown and fish out.

Cherry Meat is a famous dish from Northeast China, and it seems to be quite a major dish. It is said that when it was first passed down from the Daotai Prefecture, it was actually braised with cherry juice, but ordinary families couldn't make it that way, so later it was changed to use tomato sauce for seasoning. Because it is made entirely with tomato sauce and not a sauce mix, it is a bit more sour than Sweet and Sour Pork, and the meat is fried very crispy. Personally, I think Cherry Meat made with fatty and lean meat tastes better; if tenderloin isn't fried well, it will get hard, so be careful. However, tenderloin is leaner and a bit healthier.
