Taken from fun-chinese-cooking:
Ingredients
1 lb pork chop meat
1 cup all purpose flour, 1 green onion, 1 pinch of salt, 1 teaspoon black pepper
1/3 cup ice water, 2 teaspoon baking powder

Preparation Time: 10 minutes
Cooking Time: 20 minutes

Servings: 4

Cooking Steps
1. Remove bones from pork chop, cut pork chop into thin 2 inch size pieces by splitting from the middle.
2. Add 1/3 cup ice water, a pinch of salt, 1 teaspoon black pepper, 1 fine chopped green onion, 1 cup all purpose flour, mix all ingredients evenly. Add 2 teaspoon baking powder, mix evenly.
3. Add 2 inch high vegetable oil to a small stainless pot (or other frying equipment). Use medium heat to fry the pork chops for 3-5 minutes or until it turns golden brown. Serve fresh.

Tip: One alternative to deep frying is to use a large non sticky pan, add a thin layer of vegetable oil (1/4 inch deep, for example), use high heat to warm the oil, then place the pork chop to the pan, cover, turn heat to medium, pan fry the shrimp for 2 minutes each side or until each side turns golden brown. This will cut down both the use of oil and total frying time.

I haven't tried this particular recipe myself, but a variation of this is one of my favorite Chinese dishes. It's called jiao yuan pai gu, and my favorite is tossed with a mixture of sauteed garlic and spicy peppers and spring onion. It's to die for.

For reference, the end result should be deeper golden/brown and crispier/crunchier.
