This has been a long time family and kid friendly favorite for 40 plus years. I never knew what brown gravy sauce was or could I find it so have always used molasses. The recipe also works well on a camping menu. I have made this many, many times on a Coleman stove. Prep time is approximate. ENJOY..!! :) Ingredients:
1 lb hamburger |
1 medium onion, diced |
2 teaspoons salt |
1 dash pepper (to taste) |
2 cups celery, diced |
1 1/2 cups water |
2 (14 ounce) cans bean sprouts, drained |
2 tablespoons cornstarch |
2 tablespoons water |
1 tablespoon soy sauce |
1 teaspoon sugar |
1 tablespoon beef gravy or 1 tablespoon 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. 7. NOTE: This may also be served over linguine instead of Chow Mein Noodles as in Lo Mein. |
