Instructions
- In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add the eggs; let them sit, undisturbed, for about 3-4 minutes (or until they set and form a large omelet). Remove the eggs to a cutting board and set aside.
- Add 2 more tablespoons of oil to the skillet and heat the oil over high heat. Add the pork; stir-fry for 1 ½ minutes. Add the garlic, mushrooms, coleslaw mix, and green onion; stir-fry for 2 more minutes. While the meat and vegetables cook, cut the eggs into thin strips.
- At the very end, add the chopped eggs, salt, soy sauce, hoisin sauce, sugar, sesame oil, ginger, pepper, and broth-cornstarch mixture. Cook and stir until the sauce thickens and the vegetables are tender, about 2 more minutes. Taste and season with additional salt and pepper, if necessary.
- Serve the mixture on top tortillas or rice with hoisin sauce and additional optional toppings.
Notes
- Slice the pork as thin as possible. A really sharp knife is key! You can also freeze the pork for about 20 minutes to make it easier to slice into very thin strips.
- Wrap the tortillas in a towel and microwave them for a few seconds so that they're warm before serving, or wrap them in foil and pop them in a 350°F oven for a few minutes. A soft, warm tortilla is so much better than a cold one!
- Do not omit the sesame oil or hoisin sauce. These are essential ingredients that give the dish its classic Asian flavor.
