Description
Moo Shu Pork is a beloved Chinese dish, a symphony of flavors that combines tender pork, crunchy vegetables, and a savory sauce, all wrapped in delicate pancakes or tortillas.
Ingredients
- 1 pound pork tenderloin
- 2 tablespoon soy sauce
- 2 tablespoon Shaoxing wine
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 3 large eggs, beaten
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 4 green onions, chopped
- 1 cup shredded cabbage
- 1 cup bean sprouts
- 1 cup bamboo shoots, julienned
- 1/2 cup dried wood ear mushrooms, rehydrated
- 1/4 cup hoisin sauce
Instructions
1. Begin by combining the pork strips with the soy sauce, Shaoxing wine, sesame oil, and cornstarch in a bowl. Mix well and let the pork marinate for 10-15 minutes.
2. In a hot wok or large skillet, add a tablespoon of vegetable oil and pour in the beaten eggs. Scramble the eggs until they’re just set, then remove them from the pan and set them aside.
3. Add another tablespoon of oil to the wok and stir-fry the marinated pork for 2-3 minutes until it’s just cooked through. Remove the pork from the pan and set it aside.
4. Heat the remaining oil in the wok and sauté the garlic and green onions until fragrant. Then, add the rehydrated wood ear mushrooms, bamboo shoots, cabbage, and bean sprouts. Stir-fry the vegetables for 3-4 minutes, ensuring they retain their crunchy texture.
5. Return the cooked pork and scrambled eggs to the wok with the sautéed vegetables. Toss everything together for 1-2 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
Notes
Leftover Moo Shu Pork can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. To maximize freshness, allow it to cool to room temperature before sealing it in the container. If you’d like to keep it for a longer period, you can freeze Moo Shu Pork for up to 2-3 months.
