MOO SHU PORK

Steps:

• First, combine the pork with the marinade ingredients and set aside for 20-30 minutes.
• Then cook the eggs. Whisk together the eggs with the rice wine and salt. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a wok over high heat. Add the beaten eggs, scramble, and turn off the heat. Dish out the cooked eggs and set aside.
• Heat the wok over high heat once again, and add 2 tablespoons of oil. When the oil starts to smoke, add the pork and sear the meat until lightly browned. Then add the chopped scallion and stir.
• Next, add the sliced cucumbers and wood ear mushrooms. Stir fry to thoroughly combine the ingredients. Now it's time to add the Shaoxing wine, light soy sauce, oyster sauce and water.
• Stir fry everything well for an additional 30 seconds. Finally add the cooked eggs, stir-fry for another 30 seconds, and serve!

VEGETABLE MOO SHU

Steps:

• Stir together the light soy sauce, sesame oil, hoisin sauce, white pepper, and salt, and set aside.
• Heat your wok over high heat with ½ tablespoon oil. Stir-fry the julienned carrots for 90 seconds, remove, and set aside. Using the same method, with ½ tablespoon oil each--cook the spiced tofu, celery, red bell pepper, and shiitake mushrooms separately, and set those aside.
• Next, heat the wok over high heat with the remaining tablespoon of oil, and add the minced garlic and leeks.
• Stir fry the vegetables until the leeks are just wilted (about 2 minutes), and add the carrots, five-spiced tofu, celery, bell pepper, and mushrooms back to the wok.
• Spread the Shaoxing wine around the perimeter of the wok, and add the sauce mixture we prepared earlier. Stir-fry everything together for another minute.
• Serve immediately with steamed Mandarin pancakes and hoisin sauce on the side!

MU SHU STOUP

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil at the bottom of a soup pot over medium-high to high heat and add protein of choice and stir fry: shrimp until just pink, chicken or pork until lightly browned. Add mushrooms, carrots and garlic, cook for 2 minutes, then add cabbage and wilt it, 5 minutes.
• While cabbage cooks, add 2 tablespoons vegetable oil to a skillet and arrange pot stickers in it. Add 2/3 cup water and turn on to medium-high heat. Cook for 8 minutes to evaporate the water, then let the pot stickers brown 1 minute more.
• Add scallions, soy sauce and black pepper and stir to combine, then add stock and bring to a boil. Stir in beaten eggs and continue to stir in pot until they are cooked and scattered throughout the stoup.
• Place a few pot stickers in the bottom of a soup bowl and top with soup.
