- 1 yellow onion (chopped)
- 1 can (8 ounce) mushrooms (drained)
- 1 cup water

How to Make
-
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.
