Directions
Pork Chop Suey, Chinese Chop Suey made with pork. I’ve cooked this for the past 45 years…and it’s at it’s best the following day. My Mom made it this way…so you can figure the recipe is a good 70 years old. Guess that’s considered antique 🙂 It freezes well, without losing flavor., How much meat (by weight) does everyone use?, Yes yes yes! This is the recipe I have been waiting for. Back in the fifties and sixties before even Chinese take out got so sophisticated, there used to be pork chop suey with lots of celery and molasses. THIS IS IT. Like another reader, I will probably add water chestnuts, because I like the crunch. This traditional chop suey is not made in any of the chop suey places near me in the northern Chicago suburbs. Thank you so much.
