Heart Chop Suey Recipe
- 2 pounds beef heart – rinsed and cut into thin strips
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup butter
- 4 onions, peeled and thinly sliced
- 1 stalk celery, diced
- 2 cups beef broth
- 1/2 cup water
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, or to taste
- Roll the strips of beef heart in flour to coat. Reserve flour. Melt the butter in a large heavy skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Brown the beef lightly in the butter. Add the onion, and saute for about 5 minutes, then add celery and just enough beef broth to cover the ingredients in the pan. Cover the pan, and simmer for one hour over low heat.
- Mix the reserved flour with water to make a paste. Stir into the meat mixture. Season with salt, pepper and Worcestershire sauce. Cook until sauce is thickened, then serve hot over rice or noodles.
