      • I just cooked this this morning! I’ve honestly always wondered how sweet and sour sauce was made, and never imagined it was that complicated! Haha. It turned out great and was sooo tasty ๐Ÿ˜„. I added some sliced white onion, and instead of chilli paste just a chopped green chilli. Cider vinegar worked well. Definitely going to cook this to impress people! ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ’™
