Directions
-
In a bowl, whisk the eggs with 1 tablespoon of dry sherry until well combined.
-
In a separate mixing bowl, combine 1/2 lb ground pork, 2 chopped fresh mushrooms, the white parts of 2 chopped scallions, 2 teaspoons cornstarch dissolved in 2 tablespoons cold water, 1/2 tablespoon dark soy sauce, 1 tablespoon dry sherry, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 tablespoon peanut oil. Mix thoroughly.
-
Heat a lightly oiled 8-inch skillet over medium heat.
-
Pour about one-quarter of the egg mixture into the skillet, tilting to coat the bottom evenly.
-
Cook until the egg pancake is just set but still tender, then transfer to a plate. Repeat with remaining egg mixture to make 4 pancakes.
-
Place a portion of the pork filling onto each egg pancake.
-
Roll up the pancakes tightly and secure with toothpicks if necessary.
-
Steam the rolls for 10-12 minutes or until the pork is cooked through.
-
While rolling, prepare the sauce by mixing 2 tablespoons oyster sauce, 1 tablespoon light soy sauce, 1 tablespoon plum sauce, and a dash of hot chili oil or Tabasco.
-
Serve the rolls hot, garnished with the reserved green parts of the scallions and drizzled with the sauce.
