Beef Chop Suey - Ummi's Style

Hari ni cuba resepi Beef Chop Suey from the book Easy Stir-Fry, published by Parragon Books and printed in Indonesia (ha ha semua nak bagitau). This is the first recipe from the book, which I had bought wayyy back in August 2009. Better late than never huh?

Anyway, the original recipe has lotsa ingredients (which I failed to find in Carrefour BTHO) and some are not consumable by muslims like me. So, kenalah adjust here and there and sudahnya Beef Chop Suey, Ummi's style.

Cumanya, I always use my heartfeeling and gerak hati when measuring ingredients for my cooking so that's why takde unit measurement ya. Sorry, kena agak-agak je lah kalau nak try out.
