Chicken Chow Mein

1 pound chicken meat
1 cup celery
1 pound bok choy
1/2 pound fresh mushrooms, sliced
1/2 pound dry won ton noodles
1 pound bean sprouts or snow pea pods
1 medium onion, sliced
1 green onion, diced along the diagonal
1 carrot, sliced
1 red pepper, sliced

Seasonings for Chicken:
1 teaspoon soy sauce
1 to 2 teaspoons oyster sauce
salt and pepper to taste
less than 1 teaspoon of cornstarch

Gravy:
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon oyster sauce
1 teaspoon soy sauce
1/2 cup water
salt or accent if desired and pepper to taste

Wash the bean sprouts to give them more time to drain. Boil noodles in salted boiling water until they are soft, but not sticky. Break the noodles in half if desired so they are easier to manage. Blanch the noodles in cold water and drain.* Cut the chicken into thin strips. Add seasoning ingredients to chicken, adding cornstarch last.

Marinate chicken in seasonings for 10 to 15 minutes. While chicken is marinating, prepare vegetables. Cut the bok choy diagonally into 1/2 inch thick slices, slice mushrooms.

Heat the frying pan on high, add 2 tablespoons of oil and fry the noodles in small portions until they are golden. Use chopsticks to separate the noodles as they are frying. Remove the noodles.

Add more oil and add the meat and onion to the pan. Stir fry until the meat has no redness. Remove from wok or pan.

Cook the rest of the vegetables separately, adding a bit of salt if desired to taste. With the bean sprouts and bok choy add a bit of sugar as well if desired.

If desired, add about 1/4 cup of water and cover pan while cooking bok choy, as it doesn't contain much moisture. Give the gravy a quick stir.

Add all the ingredients back into the wok, making a well in the middle if the wok for the gravy. Mix well. Add green onions at this point if desired, or save them for a garnish. Pour on top of the noodles. Garnish with sesame seeds. Serve hot. Serves 4 to 6.

*If using fresh noodles, still boil them in hot water as this removes some of the starch and makes stir frying easier.

Potato Pierogis "Elegante"

Dough:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon butter, softened
1/2 cup lukewarm milk
Filling:
4 to 5 medium potatoes, peeled, boiled in water until fork tender
2 teaspoons butter
1 cup shredded sharp Cheddar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 medium onion, finely diced

Additional ingredients for frying:
1 large onion, roughly chopped
1 stick butter, plus extra for frying

In a large mixing bowl, add flour, salt, cream cheese, egg, butter, and milk. With your hands mix together until dough forms a ball. Turn out on a floured board and knead until smooth. You may add a little more flour to make the dough pliable. Divide dough into fourths. Put the pieces under a damp cloth, so it won't dry out. Roll the first piece to 1/4 inch of thickness and cut with a 3-inch cookie cutter or a glass. Put pierogi rounds under damp cloth while cutting the rest.

Filling: This may be made ahead of time! Mash hot potatoes. Saute onion in the butter and add this to the hot mashed potatoes along with the cheddar cheese, salt and pepper. You may add a little milk if too dense. The consistency should be a little thicker than mashed potatoes.

Assembly of pierogis: For each pierogi, place 1 tablespoon of potato mixture in the center of the dough circle. Fold over to form a half circle. Seal edges by pinching together with your fingers. I then take a fork and press all along the edges. Repeat with remaining dough filling.

Cooking pierogis: Fill a large pot half full with water and bring to a boil. Drop 5 or 6 pierogis in at a time. When they float to the top, cook for 1 minute. Place in a colander to drain. They will stick to paper towels. Repeat with remaining pierogis.

Frying pierogis: In a large frying pan saute onion in butter and remove onion to a separate bowl. Place pierogis in pan and cook for 2 minutes on each side. You may have to add more butter for frying. Remove and place in a covered casserole dish. When all pierogis are prepared, pour sauteed onion over the top. Serve with sour cream or applesauce.
