Steps
Place the pork ribs in a large pot or covered wok. Season them with salt and pepper, then add the garlic cloves, bay leaves, and enough water to cover the meat.
Cover the pot and cook over medium-low heat for approximately 1 hour, until the water has evaporated and the ribs are cooked and beginning to brown in their own fat. Check the meat at around 55 minutes.
Once the liquid has evaporated, continue cooking the ribs, stirring frequently so they brown evenly without sticking to the bottom.
Remove and discard the bay leaves.
Add the white onion and poblano peppers to the pot with the ribs. Mix well and cook for approximately 2 minutes, until they begin to soften and release their aroma.
Add the bean sprouts and mix until they are distributed among the ribs, onion, and poblanos.
Add soy sauce to taste and mix again. Taste carefully and adjust the salt if necessary.
Cover and cook for approximately 5 minutes. Remove from the heat when the sprouts are hot but still retain some crunch; cook them for a few more minutes if you prefer them completely soft.
Serve the chop suey hot with white rice.
Notes
The original recipe does not specify the amounts of soy sauce, salt, pepper, water, or rice; add them to taste. The bean sprouts are best slightly crunchy, according to the preference indicated in the source.
