How to Make Beijing-Style Hoisin Pork Pancakes

1. Prepare the Sauce

In a small bowl, mix together the hoisin sauce, chicken stock, double dark soy sauce, Shaoxing wine, sugar, cornstarch, and salt. This combination of flavors will meld together beautifully, creating a rich and savory sauce that will elevate your dish.

2. Scramble the Eggs

Heat a wok over medium heat and add 1.5 tablespoons of peanut oil. Once the oil is hot, pour in the beaten eggs. Stir them continuously until they reach a soft consistency but are fully set. Pre-cooking the eggs ensures they remain tender and don’t overcook when mixed into the main dish later.

3. Oil-Blanch the Pork

Heat 3 cups of peanut oil in the wok until it reaches 350ºF. Carefully add the julienned pork and blanch it for about 1.5 minutes. This step seals in the pork's juices while removing excess fat. Once the pork is no longer pink, remove it with a Chinese strainer and set it aside.

4. Steam the Pancakes

Steam the pancakes according to the instructions provided with them. This step is essential for soft and pliable pancakes that will wrap around the flavorful filling.

5. Stir-Fry the Vegetables

In a clean wok, heat 2 tablespoons of peanut oil over medium-high heat. Add the minced ginger and garlic, stirring until fragrant. Then, add the shredded cabbage and stir-fry for about 3 minutes until it begins to soften. Add the scallions, bamboo shoots, cloud ears, tiger lily buds, and julienned mushrooms. Continue to stir-fry for another 3 minutes until all the vegetables are tender and well mixed.

6. Combine Pork and Vegetables

Add the blanched pork back to the wok with the vegetables and stir-fry for an additional 2 minutes. This high-heat cooking ensures everything is heated through and flavors meld together.

7. Incorporate the Sauce and Eggs

Make a well in the center of the vegetable and pork mixture. Pour in the prepared sauce and stir continuously until it thickens and bubbles, ensuring an even distribution. Mix in the scrambled eggs gently, allowing them to incorporate into the dish without breaking apart.

8. Finish with Sesame Oil

Drizzle 1 tablespoon of sesame oil over the mixture, giving it a final stir. The sesame oil adds a rich, nutty finish, enhancing the overall flavor.
