Directions
-
In a bowl, combine the shredded pork with cornstarch, salt, pepper, 1 tablespoon dry sherry, and enough beaten egg to moisten it. Marinate for 30 minutes.
-
Heat a wok until very hot and dry, then add the oil.
-
When the oil begins to smoke, add the marinated pork and the 2 slightly beaten eggs, stirring quickly so the pork pieces separate and the eggs form curds.
-
Drain the pork and egg mixture through a colander, reserving 2-3 tablespoons of the cooking oil.
-
Return the reserved oil to the wok and lightly brown the chopped garlic.
-
Add the cabbage, scallions, bamboo shoots, mushrooms, tree ears, and tiger lily buds to the wok. Stir-fry or flip until just cooked, about 3-4 minutes.
-
Return the pork and egg mixture to the wok with the vegetables.
-
Add 2 teaspoons hoisin sauce, soy sauce, 1 teaspoon dry sherry, sugar, salt, pepper, and MSG if using. Combine well.
-
Remove from heat.
-
Spread each Chinese pancake with hoisin sauce.
-
Place about 2 tablespoons of the filling onto the bottom half of each pancake and roll up like crepes.
-
Serve immediately.
