Hey lovelies

we always have a pack of cheap and cheerful pork chops knocking around the freezer screaming to be used up.

If I had to pick one of my favorite types of world cuisine it would be Chinese,

Id honestly eat it every night if I could and added bonus is it’s so easy to cook at home

This dish is a huge hit with the smalies , because most kids will eat noodles until they come out of there ears and you can pick and mix their preferred veggies to serve from the wok.

The grown-ups will love the sticky and sweet pork chops making the overall dish a huge hit with all the family.
