Introduction
This is a traditional sweet and sour recipe from my mother. Her mother made it every Friday night as an appetizer. My kids love it as an entree. Dip fresh bread in the gravy sopping up all the liquid so your plate is clean. This is a traditional sweet and sour recipe from my mother. Her mother made it every Friday night as an appetizer.
