This is a tasty Chinese Stir-Fry Casserole recipe you can easily make at home. Change up the vegetables and make it your own!
This Chinese Stir-Fry Casserole recipe is based on a recipe from an old family recipe book. I had to update it by changing out a few of the ingredients and the end result was a delicious, easy to make casserole.
If you like mushrooms, I would suggest replacing the cream of celery soup with cream of mushroom soup and add some sliced mushrooms to the vegetable mix.
As I’ve mentioned in some of my other recipes, the wife and I don’t care for mushrooms so whenever possible, I swap them out for something else. Either way, you can’t go wrong with this dish!
What are Water Chestnuts
If you are unfamiliar with water chestnuts, they are a type of aquatic vegetable commonly used in Asian cuisine like stir-fries and salads.
Contrary to their name, they are vegetables that grow underwater, not nuts. They retain their crispness when cooked briefly and add a delightful crunch to the dish.
How to Handle Raw Beef
- Thaw frozen ground beef on a plate on the lowest shelf of the refrigerator, to avoid dripping onto other foods.
- Keep raw and ready-to-eat meats separate.
- Wash hands thoroughly before and after handling raw ground beef. Wash cutting boards, bowls, and utensils used to prepare raw ground beef with hot soapy water and rinse well.
- Use separate plates to carry raw ground beef patties to the cooking area and cooked patties to the serving area.
- Use a Thermometer to ensure Ground Beef Reaches the Safely Cooked Internal Temperature of 160°F.
