CHOP SUEY

Chop Suey

So last Thursday we ate Chop Suey, Hanaia’s dad AKA Mr.T came to our class and we had a lot of fun cooking Chop Suey. We had frozen veggies, oregano and thyme seasoning, Baby spinach, Vermicelli noodles, Jasmine rice, soy sauce, ABC sauce, light soy sauce, chicken and onions mixed with garlic. First we took out all of the garlic and onions from a container into a big pot and then we put the frozen veggies in another pot. Mr.T cleaned the rice,  because it has a load of starch and the starch is sticky and if we don't clean it, it will taste sticky. So we just cleaned it a few times, then we put the chicken into the pot with the onions. And after that we put both soy sauces. The very salty light one for the flavour, and the darkened black one for the dark colour. It looked very good.

Mr.T says if you put two drops of soy sauce then that will be a tablespoon. We took out the onions and the onions had a darkish colour and everyone was SUPER SURPRISED!!! I was amazed to see the process. Then we put the forest green peas and the delicate sunny corn with the orange carrots into the pot of chicken. We then put in some oregano and thyme for seasoning, it smelt delicious and I couldn't wait to get some of that Chop Suey. We also put a tea towel on top of the rice so the steam couldn’t get out. The steam will cook the rice until the rice floats to the top of the pot. Then you turn off the cooker and let the rice cool down. We then take the Vermicelli noodles but make sure you cut them small. We combined it in with the chicken, onions and frozen veggies. We put in more of the dark soy sauce. Then we got the rice and put everything in bowls ready to serve…

So now the best part, eating!!!! Mmm I was waiting for this part. I was super excited, I couldn’t wait but then he said ladies first. I got a little bit jealous that girls always go first but I said it's okay. When they finished, the boys got to get food. I was luckily, the second one who got a bowl of Chop Suey. When I was moving that terrific fork to my drooling mouth. Sluuuuurp. I felt the wobbly noodles and the seasoned chicken, delicious (chef kiss) mwaaah, I loved it. Suddenly in like two minutes I finished my Chop Suey. I was the first person to finish my bowl. When I finished all my friends were showing off and I was CRYING INSIDE!!!!!! They were eating their incredible Chop Suey slowly in front of me.

I was like “HOW COULD YOU DO THIS TO MEEEEEE.” But I got over it quickly-_-, then Hanaia’s dad asked “who wants hot sauce”. I told him “you could’ve told me that earlier.” Even more pain in my heart, but I got some hot sauce on my plate and I licked it off. My friend was like, I'll take this easily, but nek minnit  he's crying. By the way his name is Darcy. The hot sauce was like a baby to me and I liked it. It tasted really good. Then at the end we got some Pani Keke. Anyways I was really grateful he came here and spent money on us. Bye bye that's the end!!!
