Moo Shu Pork Wraps for Two
  1. 1

    Heat cooking oil in a square Japanese omelet pan or a small skillet over medium heat. Pour the beaten egg into the pan and spread it evenly. Cook until just set, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board lined with a paper towel to cool.

  2. 2

    Sprinkle the pork with salt, black pepper, and Sichuan pepper. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Place the cloud ear mushrooms in a bowl and cover with warm water. Place the noodles in a separate bowl and cover with warm water. Let the mushrooms and noodles soak until reconstituted and soft, about 5 minutes.

  4. 4

    Drain the mushrooms and slice them into thin strips. Drain the noodles and cut them into shorter lengths.

  5. 5

    Heat sesame oil in a frying pan or wok over medium heat. Add the pork and stir-fry until it changes color, about 3 minutes. Add the mushrooms and noodles and cook 1 minute more. Swirl in the oyster sauce and soy sauce and stir-fry until evenly coated, about 1 minute more. Transfer to a small plate.

  6. 6

    Place the scallions, cabbage, and cooked egg in individual serving dishes.

  7. 7

    Combine the hoisin sauce, ginger, sake, soy sauce, and garlic in a small bowl.

  8. 8

    Place the moo shu pancakes on a microwave-safe plate and warm in the microwave for about 45 seconds.

  9. 9

    Place the moo shu pancakes in the center of the table surrounded by the meat, vegetables, and sauce. To eat, take a moo shu pancake in your hand, spread the inner side with sauce, then add pork mixture, egg, and vegetables as desired, wrap, and eat.
