I do my own often and keep a good supply of all the chinky
seasonings/ingredients. It's actually very easy, all one needs is
left over meat, a spare pork chop works well. I always have Bok Choy,
celery, onions, garlic and some other veggies in the fridge, a case of
canned 'shrooms I'm set to go. I typically cook pork or eggs chinky
style, I rarely cook chicken... neither of us enjoys poultry. I roast
a small turkey for Thanksgiving only because it's traditional but we
generally don't eat even half, the rest feeds the outside critters.
The only meat we eat is pork and beef... not even seafood as we can't
get fresh seafood here, frozen seafood is trash. Rather than meat we
eat a lot of egg dishes.
