Instructions
  1. Combine flour, cornstarch, salt, water and egg in a bowl; stir with a wire whisk until well blended. Add pork, stirring mixture well.
  2. Pour oil to depth of 2 inches into a large heavy saucepan; heat to 375 degrees F. Carefully drop pork into hot oil, and fry 5 minutes or until golden. Drain on paper towels. Arrange pork on single layer on a baking sheet; place in a 200 degree F oven to keep warm while frying remaining pork.
  3. Drain pineapple, reserving juice. Set pineapple aside. Add enough water to juice to make 1 cup. Combine juice, brown sugar, vinegar and soy sauce; stir until sugar dissolves. Set aside. Combine 2 tablespoons cornstarch and 2 tablespoons water, stirring until smooth; set aside.
  4. Pour 2 tablespoons oil around top of preheated wok (or in a large skillet), coating sides; heat at medium-high (375 degrees F) for 2 minutes. Add carrot and next 3 ingredients; stir-fry 3 to 5 minutes or until crisp-tender. Stir in juice mixture. Bring to a boil and boil 1 minute. Stir in cornstarch mixture, cook, stirring constantly, until thickened. Add pork and pineapple; stir-fry until thoroughly heated. Serve over rice.
