Moo-Shu Vegetables

justcallmetoni's Note:

I was surprised to find that there were no recipes for moo-shu vegetables on this site (at least none you can find on a category search). So easy to make and wonderfully tasty.

• Prep Time: 20 mins
• Cook Time: 10 mins

Ingredients:

Servings: 4

• 1 small cabbage , shredded
• 1 carrot , shredded
• 6 scallions , split in half lengthwise and cut into 1-2 inch pieces
• 1 cup white mushroom , sliced (look for small ones)

1. Warm pancakes as directed on package.
2. Heat wok over high heat until almost smoking. Add 1 teaspoon of oil and stir fry mushroom until softened. Remove mushrooms from wok.
3. Add remaining oil to the wok along with the garlic and ginger. Stir-fry spices 30 seconds, add cabbage and carrots. Continue cooking 2 minutes add 2 tablespoons of soy sauce and taste. Add additional soy sauce if desired.

Moo-shu good this is, TRUE! SO healthy, easy to do! Shredded cabbage through food processor as was alot easier for me, Came out like shredded carrot, same consistency! No need to use any stock or water too, But think this is because there was some liquid in shredding it like carrot too! Easy way to increase veggie intake, SO good for you and your family sake! As am unable to have the pancakes, used wholewheat tortilla, works for me! Helpful hint? Zap in microwave for 20 seconds to soften before rolling...makes it EASY! Hoisin sauce, Moo-Shu....Never made before, but would have if I knew! Will definately make this again, Used 1/2 cabbage, Made ALOT, Will be adding chilli as I like it HOT! THANKS!
