Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 лип 2017
- Let's give this a whirl. I've only made this once before, and it's been years. A staple in any Samoan household. Sorry I haven't provided clearer portions for ingredients, a lot of this you generally wing. If it's too ambiguous, here's a wee list.
Ingredients.
800g - 1kg beef - chopped, then boiled for an hour and fried
4 T peanut oil
1 packet of vermicelli
5 cloves garlic - chopped
50g ginger - chopped
Mushroom soy sauce ( you determine how dark you want your chop suey)
1 Onion - chopped
Boiling water
Finally someone who listed the ingredients, love this vid
Awesome thank-you!
What a great recipe, and very easy to follow! I followed it exactly and it came out incredible
this literally made me cook in after watching. always remember my samoan mates bringing it to shared lunches at school
North Aliping awesome, hopefully it went well? 😊👌🏽
Thank you 🙂
I’ve been trying too make this for years this one video has made it possible too enjoy at home thankyou so much
Thanks for this recipe - I am asian and love Polynesian cultural food! One of the best I’ve tried is chop suey.. making this today!!

This Palangi has always loved this dish and now thanks to youtube can now make it...Thank you.
Kerry Bentley 😂😂😂 that’s fantastic to hear! 😊👌🏽 I hope you enjoy it 😀
Man I wish I listened to my dad during his lessons lol. I was young and lazy and I didn't pay attention haha. So hear I am. Thank you
R.I.P Dad
Could the onion go with the garlic and ginger?
Just made this for the family yum as thanks for the video
Really make me feel at home 😊
Definitely making this now ❤
This looks good!
Just saw and trying out brisket and aww omg it’s better then chicken nibbles. I love this method.
Neat.
I've never seen the lialia put in that way,but every one has their own take on doing it. Awesome!
Sharlene Looker thanks 😊 - the reason I throw the lialia in like that is because I was told that if I fa’avai (submerge it in water) beforehand it will pala (cook too quickly and have a real wet texture about it) so I decided to just throw it in and cover with boiling water instead 😊
good point, gonna try it one day. thanks for the tip :D
@@nuliknax7407 that is why you fa'avai it in cold water then pour it all in together with the water it soaked in and turn it to low-med. Also, it's best to marinate your meat so that it doesn't dry out and still retains the flavour
🔥🔥 nice will def. Have a go at this 1
oh this is different but very cool, my mum always softens the vermicelli in a bowl and puts soya sauce in that, then chucks it in with the meat :)
I'm you tubing how to cook chop sued cause i don't know and have only done it once hahahaha
Phobelia haha oh okay 👌🏽 that’s cool aswell. My mum used to fa’avai the vermicelli but said that if it’s too soggy and then you add boiling water over it the vermicelli comes out wilted 🥀- so I just throw it all in and then pour the soy sauce in it once it’s in the pot lol 😂- I only make chop suey once in a blue moon - so I’m kinda just gaming it too 🤣🤣🤣
@@nuliknax7407 Agree too much water,but then everyone has their own recipe,my mum adds capsicum and carrots and string beans and she too soaks it water to soften and the water in that is poured together with the fried meat and soya sauce and garlic i dont think she uses ginger. But still your chop suey still look nice
My boyfriend is Maori from the south side and I tried this for the first time today from some kiwi Pacific store and he said he's had wayyy better so I'm going to try making this and see what he says 😁😅
beth kovacs good ruck! I hope it wasn’t worse than what you had already tasted lol 😂
tell him to cook it then ; ) what a fussy guy hehehe
Thanks heaps I'm making this now
Hope it went well 😃
Fantastic video. Thank you. Now I don't have to buy it all the time 😀😀
Are those the same as glass noodles? Or rice noodles ?
yup, glass noodles :)
Can you put the ingredient on screen?
I'm not Samoan but I looove chop sui
Sweet, where you from?
yuuuuuummmmmm
I’m doing this for lunch!🤗
Emma awesome! 👌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🤓 let me know how it went !
Jesus loves you and God has a plan for your life ❤️💕💓💖🧬🧬
Burnt the pot kuzi lol yah ever add veggies
😂😂 with veges it could have been a pansit (Filipino dish) 😊unless you stir fry the veges first - then take them out - fry the beef then add them back in with the vermicelli and the water 💦
@@nuliknax7407 not at all, if you marinate the meat beforehand in the soy sauce, onion, garlic (ginger is optional) it takes less time to cook and cooks as long as it takes the veges to cook. Soaking the lialia in cold water then letting it simmer on med-low until it starts to bubble in the middle ensures nothing is overcooked
This looks like kaka
This is not u prepare and cook chop suey lol
Mine is better way different what she made
Put up on UA-cam then
Let's see it then..
Wow looks to sloppy
this makes me cringe lol please take more pride in the way you cook our Polynesian food before posting on social platforms lol there is zero technique, meat looks too dry, your heat is too high, a crucial ingredient- onion- is missing and ingredients were added at the wrong time at every point. Meat should be marinated at least 6-8 hours prior in onion, garlic, ginger and the soy sauce so that it soaks in the flavour and takes less time to cook and preventing dryness. If veges are added, this would be the point to add them to the meat and half cook before adding the vermicelli. Vermicelli should be soaked in cold water, this prevents overcooking it, and cut to preferred length with thickened parts removed and cleaned. Measure water to just above the level of the vermicelli in a bowl to avoid a watery mixture when added to the pot. Pour vermicelli and its water into pot and let it sit on med-low to simmer until it bubbles, stirring gently only to mix everything together then letting it sit. It's crucial to not over stir so as not to break the noodle
lol I can barely remember the year i posted this. Thanks for the errr.. feedback. i'm sure i'll forget most of it the next time i consider sapasui. Why not create a video of your own, displaying all the apparent "technique" and finesse you claim this meal needs instead of coming at a random nothing video on the interwebs critiquing it like it was meant to be on masterchef, lol
That looks yuckkkk co
Fob food is gross
Giddy_onhy that’s fine. Nobody’s forcing you to eat it.
it simply boils down to how it's prepared. The preparation in this video does not reflect how we all cook lol
