Personal
Notes: You can use ketchup instead.
Adjust cornstarch - less for softer batter, more for crisp batter.
Do not boil the gravy after adding the vinegar.
Old cooking oil will make batter very puffy, use fresh peanut oil.
Let the pork simmer in some water and then add the sauce. This gives it a homemade look.
