  • 1 lb hamburger
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 1 dash pepper (to taste)
  • 1 1/2 cups water
  • 2 (14 oz) cans bean sprouts, drained
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch
  • 2 tbsp water
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 1 tbsp beef gravy or 1 tbsp molasses

Directions:

  1. Saute meat and onion in a small amount of butter or vegetable oil until meat is brown and no longer pink.
  2. Add salt, pepper, celery and water; cover and simmer for 20 minutes. Add bean sprouts.
  3. Blend cornstarch with 2 tablespoons water and add soy sauce, sugar and brown gravy sauce.
  4. Stir into meat mixture and heat until thickened.
  5. Serve over Chow Mein Noodles.
  6. VARIATION: Omit hamburger and use leftover pork roast cut into bite size pieces along with leftover gravy. Canned sliced water chestnuts and/or a can of baby corn is a lovely addition as well.
