Haven’t had American Chopsuey in a very long time. Some dishes we just tend to forget till a blogger shares it. Indrani, now you’re tempting me to make it. With fried egg, its definitely filling.
Our favorite and we tend to lean towards it when we go out. But never did it occur to me that making American chopsuey is so easy. Thanks Indrani I must try making this yum dish.
Thank you Archana. You can have a look at the recipe video.
This one is such a happy meal for me! Anything crispy, saucy and then with a fried egg on top is what defines deliciousness for me!
Thank you Maria
