Skip takeout and make your own sweet and sour pork at home. I like to toss some egg rolls in the air fryer while it is hot so that the meal has that full Chinese takeout feel to it. Serve over rice if desired.

¼ cup white sugar
¼ cup rice vinegar
4 tablespoons ketchup
2 tablespoons soy sauce

Meanwhile, preheat the air fryer to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Spray the basket of the air fryer with cooking spray. Place pork in the basket of the air fryer and spray top of pork with cooking spray.
