This was so good! I had been wanting something like this for a while and the flavour was just like it was from a Chinese restaurant. I made it with pork loin. There are only 2 of us so I cut the meat in half but made it with the same amount of sauce so we would have sauce to spare and pour over the rice. I will be making this again for sure!

I tried this tonight when I found myself with a pork loin and nothing to do with it. It was very easy and very delicious! Even my two year old loved it. I had everything on hand to make it except the five-spice and I added a bit of chili sauce to it. I will definitely make this again. Thanks!

The taste and aroma of this dish is GREAT! Finding this recipe here to make was my fate! I used a combination of hoisin sauce and vanilla yogurt with scallion, as wanted to do! There is NOTHING wrong with this recipe, probably would not make again, true! PLEASE don't let this review throw you so you don't try! Just read previous reviews and you will know why! :) THANKS!

Everyone loved this recipe! I used a pork tenderloin and doubled the sauce/marinade mixture. Our 6 year old absolutely loved this! Thank you one-of-thr3

I don't understand using a picture of full roasts and the instructions say to slice 1/8 of an inch.
