Instructions

  1. Brown the Pork: Begin by cubing the pork and browning it in a large saucepan over medium heat, ensuring it develops a golden crust for added flavor.

  2. Combine Ingredients: Once the pork is browned, add in the chopped green peppers, onions, corn, molasses, soy sauce, vinegar, hot water, and minced garlic to the pot. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.

  3. Simmer: Allow the mixture to simmer for about one hour, stirring occasionally, until the pork is tender and the flavors meld beautifully.

  4. Thicken the Sauce: In a separate bowl, mix the cornstarch with 1 cup of water until smooth. Gradually add this mixture to the pot while stirring until the sauce reaches your desired consistency.

  5. Serve: Once thickened, serve the Pork Chop Suey over a bed of fluffy rice or alongside egg noodles for a complete meal.


Enjoy the ultimate comfort of this Pork Chop Suey, where each bite is packed with flavor and a sense of home. Perfect for family dinners or whenever you crave something warm and satisfying!
