Directions
Moo Shu Pork, This is a popular classic in the Chinese restaurant scene. You can replace the pork with chicken or shrimp, but the original recipe is with pork. My parents say this recipe tastes better than the ones they’ve had in Canadian Chinese restaurants. Once you get the hang of making it, you’ll want to make it often. If you don’t want to spend the time making pancakes, you can use soft tortillas to replace. The homemade pancakes are much better though. This dish goes well with hot and sour soup, for a Beijing style meal., Great recipe. Very easy to make. The flavoring is very close to the restaurants I go to. I added a few tweaks to simplify the process and to my liking: 1. 1-2hrs to rehydrate wood ear mushrooms submerging in a bowl of very warm water with a plate on top (to keep everything submerged). Replace water every 30 minutes 2. Use flour tortillas to save time by microwaving them. Place 4 tortillas on top of a dry paper towel (to soak up moisture) and plate. On the top, place wet paper towel (to keep tortillas from drying out). Microwave for 45 seconds 3. I doubled the eggs cause I like more eggs on my moo-shu 4. Julienne the pork perpendicular to the grain of the meat to make it more tender. 5. I also mixed in 3 Tbsp of corn starch to the pork to make it a little more gravy like. 5. I found I needed to use more oil than was in the recipe., See my comments
