Mango Pork Over Rice Recipe

Mango Pork Over Rice

Ah, the colors of fall: brown, red, yellow, gold ... How about a simple recipe that combines these colors?  I like to add certain fruits to my recipes, including pineapple, guava, banana, raisin, and yes, mango -- sweet, ripe mango.  I've enjoyed mango chicken in a few Chinese restaurants that I've been to, but I thought I'd substitute the chicken with pork.  After all, they're both white meat!  To stick the fall colors theme, I chose to partner this dish with red, instead of the regular white rice.
