Sweet and Sour Pork with Coconut Rice

I always thought you had to go to an Asian food restaurant to enjoy Asian food. As it turns out, it can be pretty easy to cook! It may include a few ingredients you don't normally keep in your cupboards, so a trip to the store ahead of time may be in order. However, this recipe is a great way to get your feet wet in the world of Asian cooking, and also to please the family with a great make-ahead meal!
