Ingredients

Directions

  1. Toss the shredded pork with cornstarch and sherry until evenly coated.
  2. Heat oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat until shimmering.
  3. Add the pork and stir-fry until browned and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes. Remove pork and set aside.
  4. In the same wok, add a bit more oil if needed and sauté minced garlic for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  5. Add shredded Chinese cabbage, bamboo shoots, sliced mushrooms, and shredded green onions. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until vegetables are tender-crisp.
  6. Return the pork to the wok. Add hoisin sauce, soy sauce, and sugar. Toss everything together until well combined and heated through.
  7. Meanwhile, make the crepes: Lightly grease a non-stick pan over medium heat. Pour a small amount of beaten egg into the pan and swirl to form a thin crepe. Cook until set, then flip and cook briefly. Repeat with remaining egg.
  8. Serve the hot mu shu pork alongside the warm egg crepes for rolling.
