Chop Suey
Ingrediants: 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil 4 Celery stalks, diagonally sliced 1 Onion, thinly sliced 1/2 pound Pork or other meat 1 cup Thinly sliced mushrooms 1 Green or red bell pepper, seeded, sliced thin 1 cup Bean sprouts 1 cup Beef stock 1 tablespoon Cornstarch 2 tablespoons Soy sauce 2 large Green onions, diagonally sliced Salt to taste Black pepper, freshly ground, to taste Directions: Cut the pork (or other meat) across the grain into small, thin strips. In a large, heavy skillet, preferably of cast iron, or in a wok, heat the oil over high heat until it is smoking hot. Do not leave the pan unattended for even a minute; hot oil can ignite. Add the celery and onion and cook briskly, stirring and tossing furiously, for about 2 minutes. Add the pork, mushrooms, and pepper and continue cooking over high heat, tossing and stirring all the while, for about 3 minutes more, until the meat is cooked through. Add the bean sprouts and cook, tossing for 1 minute. Quickly stir the broth, cornstarch, and soy sauce together until blended. Add to the other ingredients along with the green onion, and cook for 1 minute more, until thickened. Season with salt and pepper to taste, and serve over rice. This recipe serves 4. One of the qualities of a faithful friend is honesty even when the truth is painful. We all need someone who will love us enough not to let us head in a harmful direction, someone who with gentleness and love will help steer us back on the path of righteousness. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Access the Recipes And More list archives at: http://www.mail-archive.com/recipesandmore%40googlegroups.com/ Visit the group home page at: http://groups.google.com/group/RecipesAndMore -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
