In many families, pork, like chicken, is a fairly frequent guest on the daily menu. It is soft, moderately greasy, versatile and unpretentious to prepare. Due to its not pronounced taste, any meat dish can be made from it. But fried pork is especially revered - puffed up, toasted, separating into fibers.
Pork, like chicken, is combined with many sauces, incl. and sweet. Moreover, even intense and bright additives do not drown out the natural taste and aroma of pork itself. And this speaks of the wide possibilities of various flavor combinations.
The base of the sauce in this recipe is spicy, aromatic, fresh and moderately sour orange juice. The taste of meat - ground ginger and garlic - makes it even more piquant. Such "company" in the process of frying impregnates and saturates the pork, giving it an amazing taste.

Cooking Roasted Pork in Orange Juice
1. Wash the pork, dry with a paper towel, cut into pieces, which are sent to fry in a well-heated frying pan with refined vegetable oil. Set the heat to high and fry the meat, stirring occasionally, until golden brown.
2. While the meat is roasting, peel, wash and chop the onions and garlic.
3. When the meat is browned, reduce the heat to medium and add the chopped onions and garlic to the skillet.
4. Mix everything well and fry the pork, stirring occasionally. Make sure that the meat does not burn.
5. When the onion is golden, season the meat with salt, pepper and ground ginger. Optionally, you can season the meat with additional ground nutmeg.

7. Use a knife to make punctures in the orange and squeeze out the juice with which to season the meat. Reduce the heat to low, close the pan with a lid and leave the meat to stew and soak in orange notes for 5-7 minutes. Put the prepared meat on a dish and serve immediately.
