Crisp pork, surou (Chinese: 酥肉) or xiaosurou is a common street food in China. Typically, it consists of fatty rib meat that is coated in a batter containing eggs and subsequently deep-fried.[1]

In Sichuan, it is very common to have crisp pork with hot pot.[2] In Shanxi, crispy pork is one of the "three Shanxi-style steamed dishes".[3] Fried purple crispy pork from Henan is a local specialty, one of the "Eight Big Bowls" in Xun County and Qi County, Hebi.[4] Crispy pork is one of the "Nine Big Bowls" in Shaanxi.[5] In Minnan and Taiwan, there is also pork tenderloin marinated in vinegar before frying, called "vinegar pork".[6]
