Step by Step Method

Step 1

Brown meat. Add celery, onion, mushrooms; saute. Add 1 cup water, cook covered 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 2

In a separate cup, mix 1 cup cold water with cornstarch, soy sauce, sugar, bouillon cube and molasses; stir, then add to meat and vegetable mixture. Cook uncovered, stirring until thickened (I would add cornstarch at last so doesn't break).

Step 3

Add water chestnuts then chop suey vegetables. Simmer approximately 20 minutes uncovered.

Step 4

Serve with rice and crisp chinese noodles.
