Enjoy our Pot Wrapped Meat (锅包肉), a beloved Northeast Chinese classic featuring thin slices of pork coated in a light, crispy batter and tossed in a tangy sweet-and-sour sauce. This popular dish at Spicy Wok Szechuan Cuisine offers a milder, flavour-packed option for those who prefer less heat.
Pot Wrapped Meat (锅包肉, Guo Bao Rou) is the crown jewel of Northeast Chinese cuisine, originating from Harbin over a century ago. At Spicy Wok Szechuan Cuisine in Ranchlands, Calgary, we prepare this beloved classic by slicing pork loin thin, coating it in a light starch batter, and double-frying until the exterior is shatteringly crispy.
The crispy pork is then quickly tossed in a house-made sweet-and-sour sauce of rice vinegar, sugar, and a touch of tomato paste, along with julienned carrots and scallions. The key is speed — the sauce must coat the pork while it remains crispy, creating a wonderful contrast between the crunchy exterior and the tangy, glossy glaze. It is a mild, universally loved dish.
