  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated
  • 4 large eggs, beaten
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 3 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp oyster sauce
  • 1 tbsp Chinese rice wine (or dry sherry)
  • 1/2 tsp Chinese five-spice powder

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a small bowl, mix together 3 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp oyster sauce, 1 tbsp Chinese rice wine (or dry sherry), 1/2 tsp Chinese five-spice powder, 1 tsp sugar, and 1/4 tsp white pepper. Set this sauce mixture aside.

  2. 2

    Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over high heat. Add 4 beaten large eggs and quickly scramble until just set, about 30 seconds. Remove to a plate and break into small pieces.

  3. 3

    Add another tablespoon of vegetable oil to the wok. Add 1 lb thinly sliced pork tenderloin and stir-fry until no longer pink, about 2-3 minutes. Remove to a plate.

  4. 4

    Add the remaining vegetable oil to the wok. Add the white parts of the 6 sliced, white and green parts separated green onions, 4 minced garlic cloves, and 1 tbsp grated fresh ginger. Stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.

  5. 5

    Add 8 soaked, stems removed, and sliced dried shiitake mushrooms and stir-fry for 1 minute. Add 1 head thinly sliced napa cabbage (small heads) and 2 julienned carrot. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until the vegetables begin to soften but still retain some crispness.

  6. 6

    Return the pork and eggs to the wok. Pour in the sauce mixture and 1 tbsp sesame oil. Stir-fry for another 1-2 minutes until everything is well combined and heated through.

  7. 7

    Stir in the green parts of the green onions and remove from heat.

  8. 8

    To assemble, warm 8 warmed flour tortillas (8-inch) according to package instructions or in a dry skillet for about 15-20 seconds per side.

  9. 9

    Spread about 1 tablespoon of 1/2 cup hoisin sauce on each tortilla. Spoon the mu shu filling onto the center of each tortilla and top with fresh 1/4 cup leaves only, for garnish fresh cilantro.

  10. 10

    Fold the bottom edge of the tortilla up slightly, then fold in the sides and roll up tightly to form a wrap. Slice in half diagonally and serve immediately or wrap in foil for a portable lunch.
