👨🍳 Οδηγίες
- 1
Prepare the pork: In a small bowl, combine the thinly sliced pork with 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tsp Shaoxing wine (or sherry), 1 tsp cornstarch, and 1 tsp sesame oil. Mix well to coat the pork and let it marinate for at least 15 minutes while you prepare the other ingredients. This tenderizes the pork and helps it brown nicely.
⏱️ 15 minutes - 2
Prepare the vegetables and mushrooms: Rehydrate the dried wood ear mushrooms in a bowl of warm water for about 15-20 minutes, or until softened. Drain, trim off any tough bits, and slice them into bite-sized pieces. Thinly shred the cabbage and slice the white and light green parts of the scallions into 2-inch lengths. Mince the garlic and ginger.
⏱️ 15 minutes - 3
Cook the eggs: Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Pour in the beaten eggs and scramble them until just set but still slightly moist. Break into smaller pieces and set aside. Clean the wok if necessary.
⏱️ 3 minutes - 4
Stir-fry the pork: Add another tablespoon of oil to the hot wok over high heat. Add the marinated pork in a single layer, if possible, and stir-fry until it's browned and just cooked through, about 2-3 minutes. Remove the pork from the wok and set aside.
⏱️ 3 minutes - 5
Stir-fry the aromatics and vegetables: Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil to the wok. Add the minced garlic and ginger and stir-fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Add the shredded cabbage and sliced scallions (reserving the green tops). Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until the cabbage is slightly tender-crisp.
⏱️ 3 minutes - 6
Combine and finish: Return the cooked pork and scrambled eggs to the wok with the vegetables. Add the sliced wood ear mushrooms. Stir everything together and cook for another 1-2 minutes until heated through. Stir in 1 tablespoon of soy sauce and 1 teaspoon of sesame oil for extra flavor if desired. Taste and adjust seasoning.
⏱️ 2 minutes - 7
Serve: Warm the Mandarin pancakes according to package directions. To serve, spoon a generous portion of the Moo Shu pork mixture onto a warm pancake, add a drizzle of hoisin sauce, and sprinkle with the reserved scallion greens. Fold the pancake like a burrito or taco and enjoy immediately.
