As well as starting to exercise, I’ve also been exploring ways to improve my diet without actually going on ‘a diet’!
I won’t go as far as to say I eat ‘clean’ (consuming food in it’s most natural state) but it does make sense to me that natural ingredients are going to be better for me than the processed equivalents.
That’s why when I find a simple recipe for something that seemed too complicated to make at home, I do a little jump for joy!
And so I give to you homemade sweet and sour pork. Stuff takeaways, this is the business!
You could use rice with this dish, but according to HelloFresh, bulgar wheat is high in fibre and protein and low on the glycemic index, so it’s a great source of nutrition – I’m not going to argue with that!
Pork Fillet
3 Tbsps Corn Flour
4 Tbsps Rice Vinegar
4 Spring Onions
2 Garlic Cloves
A knob of ginger
1/2 Red Pepper
1/2 Yellow Pepper
2 Tbsps Soy Sauce
2 Tbsps Sugar
1 Vegetable Stock Pot
150g Bulgar Wheat
350ml Water
2 Tbsps Oil
Then all that’s left is to take a step back, admire how great a cook you are, then tuck in with gusto!
