CHINESE CHOP SUEY
3 LBS PORK (CUBED)
1 C OIL
1 LG BUNCH CELERY (CHOPPED)
6 OR 7 GREEN PEPPERS (CHOPPED)
1-2 LG OR SEVERAL SM ONIONS (CHOPPED)
2-3 LB BEAN SPROUTS (FRESH)
LA CHOY SOY SAUCE
SALT AND PEPPER
NOTE: USE A CHEAP PORK ROAST (BUTT) NOT TOO LEAN, ITS BETTER FOR
THIS. ALSO, THE VEGETABLES SHOULD NOT BE CHOPPED TOO SMALL.
IN A VERY LARGE POT, COOK PORK IN OIL TIL BROWN. ADD CELERY AND
COOK WHILE YOU CHOP REST OF VEGETABLES. ADD PEPPERS AND ONIONS,
COOK TIL ALMOST TENDER. ADD BEAN SPROUTS, COVER AND COOK FOR ABOUT
ANOTHER 1/2- 3/4 HOUR TIL EVERYTHING IS TENDER AND LIQUID REACHES
TOP OF VEGETABLES. *** DO NOT ADD ANY WATER TO THIS DISH, YOU WILL
FEEL THAT ONCE YOU HAVE ADDED THE SPROUTS THAT IT NEEDS WATER BUT
THE SPROUTS CREATE WATER IN THIS DISH, JUST KEEP TURNING IT OVER
TIL THAT HAPPENS*** ADD SOY SAUCE TO TASTE.
THIS IS MY FATHERS RECIPE WHICH ALWAYS WENT OVER VERY BIG AT HIS
HUNTING AND CLUB FUNCTIONS. HOPE YOU ENJOY.

FORGOT TO TELL YOU THAT THIS WILL PROBABILY NEED TO BE THICKENED
A LITTLE AFTER YOU ADD THE SOY SAUCE. I USE CORN STARCH.

Chop Suey means 'a little bit of this, a little bit of that', sort of
mixing the left over together,and make a dish out of it. This dish is
definitely American-Chinese. I have never heard of it back in Hong
Kong, and China. Neither have I ever heard of egg rolls (we only have
spring rolls, they are much smaller), and pu-pu platters.
