Tips
If you cut your vegetables to the same size, they will all cook at the same time when you put them in the pan.
Mix some beef bouillon cubes with the hot water and cornstarch, and then add the mixture to the skillet.
If you want to make this dish sweeter or spicier, try adding 1 or 2 finely chopped chilis, a pinch of black pepper, and a tablespoon of brown sugar.
Having all the ingredients ready will help you make stir-fry quickly. Also, start the rice first if you want to serve it with this.
It's important to use a hot pan when stir-frying, so the chop suey doesn't get soggy.
Using a wide range of different vegetables gives this dish a nice look and a lot of different textures, making each bite more interesting.
