- Heat a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add 1 tablespoon of the peanut oil and swirl to coat.
- Pour in the eggs, swirling and tilting the wok to form a thin film.
- Cook just until the eggs are set and feel dry on top, about 1 minute.
- Transfer to a platter, let cool slightly and cut into 1 inch strips.
- Return the wok to high heat, and swirl in the remaining 2 tablespoons oil.
- Add the garlic, and ginger, and stir-fry to release the aromas, about 1 minute.
- Add the pork and stir-fry until lightly browned, about 2 minutes.
- Add the reserved mushrooms, cabbage, carrot, bean sprouts, and scallions, along with the chicken stock, and stir-fry another 2 minutes.
- Stir in soy sauce, sherry, sesame oil, and sugar, and cook, stirring until sauce boils, about 1 minute.
- Add egg strips and mix well.
- To serve, spread a small amount of hoisin sauce on a warm Mandarin Pancake.
- Spoon about 1/2 cup mu shu mixture in center of pancake, wrap like a burrito, folding the ends to close, and serve.
