We had some water chestnuts given yesterday. They were very, very tasty. It seems a shame to add them to a chop suey and not just eat them as a snack. However my wife went shopping this afternoon and found mushrooms, snow peas, bok choi, capsicum, bamboo shoots and bean sprouts. (We have chicken in the freezer).

So it has got to be done!

Pictures tomorrow.

Tonight was prawn wontons with spring onions and shed loads of black pepper.

And dipping bread!

Our dinner last night was one of our old standbys, tricolor rotini pasta with mild and hot Italian sausage, onions, mushrooms, garlic, zucchini, diced or stewed canned tomatoes, with a bit of basil and beef broth, topped with grated parm.

I've not heard it called that before but I see the similarity. And apparently "chop suey" was "invented" by a Chinese chef in California.

Almost Coq au Vin really.

 

[Wyshiepoo]

Almost Coq au Vin really.

Yes, my thoughts too. I think it is just a variation. Can you think of anything different that would make this a classic coq au vin?
Language wise coq au vin = chicken in wine, no?

This was today's chop suey......

I actually managed about 80% of that dish with the chopsticks. The garden peas eventually had me buggered and I went to get a spoon.
