Chopsuey is a chinese dish. Most of the restaurants in India they have two types of chopsuey one is American chopsuey which is served as deep fried noodles with tomato based sauce and Chinese chopsuey which is soya based sauce served with deep fried noodles. Both are fusion because they prepare according to our taste buds. Here I am giving the recipe for American chopsuey. Which I wanted to share with you all. So give a try.
