Using store-bought flour tortillas in lieu of homemade pancakes makes it easy to replicate this Chinese take-out favorite in your own home. Hoisin sauce, sold in most grocers’ Asian-food section, replaces the traditional (and harder-to-find) plum sauce.
Ingredients
serves 44 teaspoons vegetable oil, such as safflower
4 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 pork tenderloin (about 1 pound), trimmed of excess fat, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced crosswise
2 tablespoons cornstarch
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
1 pound shiitake mushrooms, stems removed, caps thinly sliced
2 tablespoons minced peeled fresh ginger
1/2 head napa cabbage (1/2 pound), shredded
5 scallions, trimmed and thinly sliced
1/3 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup rice vinegar (unseasoned)
8 flour tortillas (6-inch size), for serving
Hoisin sauce, for serving
Step 1
In a large nonstick skillet, heat 1 teaspoon oil over medium. Add eggs; cook, without stirring, until just set, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board. When cool enough to handle, roll into a log, and slice crosswise into 1/4-inch-wide strips.
Step 2
Place pork in a medium bowl, and sprinkle with cornstarch. Season with salt and pepper, and toss to coat. Wipe skillet clean with paper towels, and heat remaining 3 teaspoons oil over medium-high. Add pork, and cook until browned on one side, 4 to 5 minutes (pork will finish cooking later); transfer pork to a plate.
Step 3
Add mushrooms and ginger to skillet; season with salt and pepper. Cook until mushrooms are lightly browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Add cabbage, scallions, soy sauce, vinegar, egg strips, and pork; cook, tossing occasionally, until cabbage is wilted and pork is cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes.
Step 4
Hold each tortilla with tongs and heat over a gas-burner flame until warm. (Alternatively, wrap stacked tortillas in foil, and heat in a 375°F oven.) To assemble, spread center of a tortilla with a thin layer of hoisin sauce; top with moo shu filling, and roll up. Serve extra hoisin sauce on the side.Everyday Food: Fresh Flavor Fast by Martha Stewart Living Magazine. Copyright © 2010 by Martha Stewart Living Magazine. Published by the Crown Publishing Group.
