countries Made with bits of chid
or shnmp, along with mushroon
bean sprouts, w-aler chestnuts, bat
boo shoots, and onions, chop sui
was traditionally served over rice
While chop sucy doesn t exist as a
dish in China, it takes its name tioi
the Cantonese ‘ tsap sem" (01 ‘ tsa
sin” mi Mandarin), meaning “niixc
pieces ’ In recent years, a simplified American vcision ot
the dish has evolved using giound beef and noodles
making Amencan chop sney a tasonte childicn's meal
