Sophisticated in its simplicity, the clean sweet and sour flavours of this dish enable the spices to shine through and dance on your palate. The sweet tang of pineapple and tomato and the sour hit of black vinegar, elevated by quality whole spices, creates a deliciously moreish dish.

Sweet and Sour is a world-renowned dish, sitting amongst some of the most iconic Chinese dishes enjoyed outside of China. The dish became popular in the west, as migrants arrived from Hong Kong in the early 20th century and introduced us to Cantonese culinary traditions. It is believed that the original version was made using black vinegar, which has since been forgotten in most western recreations. However, in our rendition, we have paid homage to this tradition.
