This was so delicious. The pork was so tender and the sauce was so tasty. You are right it is so very easy to make and looks like you slaved over the stove for a while. I had put in some seasoned salt and garlic powder with the flour mix. Served mine with my favorite green beans only cause I didn't feel like noodles tonight. It was so fantastic thank you so much for posting your recipe. My DD and I enjoyed so very much.
