Tonights Meal

Chop Suey is a Chinese dish consisting of meat (often chicken, fish, beef, shrimp (UK: prawns) or pork) and eggs, cooked quickly with vegetables such as bean sprouts, cabbage, and celery and bound in a starch-thickened sauce. It is typically served with rice but can become the Chinese-American form of chow mein with the addition of stir-fried noodles.




But.that is not what we are having, our dinner was designed by someone who said "Gee, that Chinese dish really looks good, let's Americanize it by changing the entire damn recipe, and then we can add the word American in front of it".

Yes...Tonights meal is American Chop Suey



If you look close you can see the resemblance between the two dishes.
