Beijing-style Sweet and Sour Squid is a popular Chinese dish that features tender squid coated in a sweet and tangy sauce. The squid is typically deep-fried or stir-fried and served alongside diced vegetables such as onions, bell peppers, and carrots. The sauce is a combination of rice vinegar, sugar, soy sauce and sometimes ketchup or tomato paste. This dish is a perfect balance of sweet, sour, and savory flavors and is often served as an appetizer or main course in Chinese restaurants.
