What's Cooking

Easy Mu Shu Pork

This dish comes together in about 15 min. once you have all the ingredients prepared.

4 tsp canola oil divided
2 eggs beaten
1 Tbsp fresh ginger peeled and minced
2 garlic cloves minced
1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
1 lb. pork tenderloin trimmed and sliced into thin strips
1/2 head of green cabbage cored and thinly sliced
1 carrot peeled and grated
1 Tbsp water
2 Tbsp soy sauce
1 tsp Asian sesame oil
3 Tbsp hoisin sauce
4 green onions chopped
8-10 large flour tortillas
extra hoisin sauce

Prepare all ingredients first. Using a wok or large skillet, scramble eggs in a tsp of oil and set aside. Cook ginger, garlic, and pepper flakes in a tsp of oil for 1 min. Add a little more oil to the pan along with the pork and stir fry for 4-5 min. or until pork is cooked through. Remove from pan, drain any liquid, and set aside. In the final tsp of oil cook cabbage and carrot. Add water and cover, stirring occasionally. Cabbage should be wilted in about 8 min. Combine soy sauce, sesame oil, and hoisin sauce in a small bowl. Add to pan along with green onion, pork and eggs. Heat through. Place tortillas between 2 damp paper towels and microwave for 1 min. Serve immediately with extra hoisin sauce brushed on the tortillas. Enjoy!
