  Cook and stir the meat and onion in a large skillet until the onion is 
  tender.  Drain off the excess fat.  Mix the water, cornstarch, soy sauce, 
  molasses and ginger and stir into the meat mixture.  Add the bean sprouts 
  and water chestnuts.  Cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens 
  and boils, about 5 minutes.  Serve on the toasted buns and pass the soy 
  sauce. NOTE: For Chow Mien omit the buns. Serve the chow mien mixture over
