Directions: Combine the first 4 ingredients in a zip-top plastic bag. Add pork; seal and marinate in refrigerator 1 hour, turning occasionally. Remove pork from bag; discard marinade.
Combine boiling water and dried shiitake mushrooms in a bowl; cover and let stand 20 minutes. Drain; discard mushroom stems, and thinly slice mushroom caps. Combine sliced mushroom caps, green onions, garlic, and ginger in a small bowl; set aside.
Combine 3 tablespoons rice wine and next 4 ingredients (3 tablespoons rice wine through black pepper) in a small bowl; stir well with a whisk. Set aside.
Heat 2 teaspoons vegetable oil in a wok or large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add pork, and stir-fry 3 minutes. Remove pork from pan. Add 2 teaspoons vegetable oil to pan. Add eggs; stir-fry 30 seconds or until soft- scrambled. Add shiitake mushroom mixture; stir-fry 2 minutes. Add the carrots, cabbage leaves, and 2 tablespoons rice wine; stir-fry 1 minute. Add pork and cornstarch mixture; stir-fry 2 minutes or until sauce is thick. Place pork mixture on a platter.
Combine hoisin sauce and 1 tablespoon soy sauce. Spread about 1-1/2 teaspoons hoisin sauce mixture on uncooked surface of each Mandarin Pancake. Top each pancake with 1/2 cup pork mixture; roll up.
Mandarin Pancakes
2 cups all-purpose flour 1 cup boiling water 1 1/2 tablespoons dark sesame oil
Lightly spoon the flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Combine flour and water in a large bowl. Stir until a soft dough forms. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead until smooth and elastic (about 3 minutes). Shape the dough into a 1 1/2-inch-thick log. Divide the dough into 16 equal portions. Roll each dough portion into a 6-inch circle on a lightly floured surface. Brush 8 pancakes evenly with oil. Top each with one of the remaining pancakes, gently pressing together. Heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Place 1 pancake stack in pan, and cook 1 minute on each side or until slightly puffed. Remove from pan, and cool. Peel pancakes apart.
Yield: 16 pancakes (serving size: 1 pancake)
