Chinese Fancy Chop Suey(Authentic) - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
1 1/2 lb. boneless pork chops, slightly thawed and sliced into thin strips
3 to 4 stalks celery (1/2-inch diagonal cut)
3 medium carrots (1/4-inch diagonal cut)
3 medium onions, quartered (not sliced)
4 green peppers (1-inch diagonal cut)
1 (20 oz.) can chunk pineapple
plain steamed rice to serve 4 to 6 people
1 can fancy chop suey vegetables
6 oz. pkg. frozen shrimp
1 can cashew pieces/halves
peanut oil
1/8 to 1/4 c. sugar
1/2 c. cornstarch
sea salt and pepper
soy sauce (regular or lite)
Preparation
-
Since rice is the most important ingredient in South China menus, the average person will eat about 1/2 to 1 cup uncooked or 1 to 2 cups cooked rice with other food served at the meal.
Use this ratio when cooking:
1/2 cup uncooked = 1 cup cooked rice. To prepare for 4 to 6 people, measure 2 to 4 cups (or more) of raw uncooked short/medium grain rice.
Do not use any other kind for authentic Chinese rice; the grains should stick together rather than separate.
