Cooking Steps
• Wash and dry produce. • Trim and cut scallions, separating whites from greens; mince whites and cut greens lengthwise into 1-inch-long matchsticks. Halve, peel, and thinly slice onion.
• Heat a drizzle of oil in a small pot over medium-high heat. Add scallion whites and cook, stirring, until fragrant, 10-15 seconds. • Add rice, 1½ cups water (3 cups for 4 servings), and a large pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to medium low. Cook until rice is tender, 15-18 minutes. • Keep covered off heat until ready to serve.
• Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add onion, scallion greens, and a big pinch of salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onion begins to soften, 2-3 minutes. • Add pork*; cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until browned and cooked through, 4-6 minutes. • Add cabbage; cook, stirring occasionally, until warmed through, 1-2 minutes.
Swap in beef for pork. (Drain any excess grease from pan before adding cabbage.)
• Add umami ginger sauce, katsu sauce, ½ cup water (1 cup for 4 servings), and a big pinch of salt to pan with pork mixture. Cook, stirring, until saucy and evenly coated, 1-2 minutes. • Turn off heat; stir in 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4) until melted and combined. Transfer moo shu pork to a large serving platter. Wash out pan.
• Heat same pan over low heat. Brush tortillas with a thin layer of sesame oil. Add tortillas to pan; cook until golden, 30 seconds per side. TIP: Depending on the size of your pan, you may need to work in batches.
• Fluff rice with a fork; stir in 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings) until melted. • Transfer rice to a serving bowl. Fold tortillas in half, then into quarters. Place rice and tortillas on platter with moo shu pork. • Serve family style, combining rice, moo shu pork, and tortillas however you like!

- Ease of prep: The format confused a few; clarify how to assemble and eat the components for a smoother experience.
- Suggestions: Try reducing water in the beef mixture for less runniness. Adding extra vegetables could boost variety and color.
- Portions: Many noted an abundance of food, with some feeling the rice-to-veggie ratio was off-balance.
- Texture: Several found the filling too watery for tortillas. Consider cooking it down more for easier wrapping.
Reviews from our home cooks
Very good flavors, enjoyed the cabbage in the mix. I did not use both rice and tortillas, too many carbs. Would have loved a side of vegetables instead minus rice.
Tasty, though really could use a bit more direction on how to eat. Three separate items, but eat them how you like (but fold the tortilla into quarters (Why?))
Sauce was very tasty! Was expecting Pork not Beef, but worked out okay.
This was excellent! My only suggestion is the noodle to veggie ratio is off. There should be more veggies
Insane amount of food for a 2 person portion, just wasn't a fan of the sauce. Would recommend giving try tho!
It was okay, just not very exciting. Adding one more vegetable or doing something extra to the rice might have made it better or more like actual moo shu.
It was a bit too greasy and the flavors were a bit bland. No one flavor stood out. Some spice, soy sauce, or citrus flavor would have gone a long way.
It was very good but there was very little veggies and I was expecting a bit more spicy (a little heat)
Would've been better with steak strips I think and way too much cabbage sent
I would prefer this on a baguette instead of the tortillas... not my favorite recipe! Also, I would omit the step of adding additional water to the meat as it simmers as it makes the mixture too watery for the tortillas. It made a mess!
