Cantonese Dinner

While I was making this I kept thinking about the1960's  housewife who made this before me thinking it was Chinese food.  I am not knocking her or the recipe at all, it was wonderful. I was thinking about how much has changed in the kitchen and in life as general as far as how much more we know now about other cultures.

 My husband loved the sauce- said it tasted like sweet and sour which he loves. I loved the long cooking time, I had time to watch a movie while this was cooking. I was in some serious need of some down time.

Cantonese Dinner
2 lbs pork, cut into bite sized pieces
2 Tbsp. oil
1 onion, sliced
1 green pepper, sliced into rings
1 C mushrooms, sliced
1 (8 oz) can tomato sauce
1/4 C brown sugar
2 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
2 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
cooked rice

Brown pork in a skillet in hot oil. In a large casserole dish combine meat with all remaining ingredients and mix well. Cover and bake at 325 degrees for 1 1/2- 2 hours or until done. serve over rice.
