Slice the pork tenderloin into thin strips, about 2 inches long. In a small bowl, mix 2 tablespoons soy sauce, cornstarch, and 1 teaspoon sesame oil. Add the pork and marinate for 10 minutes while you prepare the other ingredients.
If using dried shiitake mushrooms, soak them in warm water for 10 minutes until softened, then slice thinly. If using fresh mushrooms, clean and slice them thinly.
Beat the eggs in a small bowl and set aside.
Heat a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 teaspoon of vegetable oil and swirl to coat. Pour in the beaten eggs and cook, stirring gently, until they form soft curds. Remove the eggs from the wok and set aside.
In the same wok, add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil and heat. Add the marinated pork and stir-fry for 3β4 minutes until the pork is browned and nearly cooked through. Remove the pork and set aside.
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the wok. Stir-fry the garlic and ginger for 30 seconds until fragrant. Add the shiitake mushrooms, julienned carrot, and bean sprouts, cooking for 2β3 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.
Return the cooked eggs and pork to the wok. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon soy sauce, hoisin sauce, and 1 teaspoon sesame oil. Stir well to combine and heat through for an additional 1β2 minutes.
Remove the filling from the heat and sprinkle with sliced green onions.
Warm the flour tortillas or Mandarin pancakes according to package instructions.
To serve, spread a small amount of hoisin sauce onto a tortilla or pancake, add a generous scoop of the Mu Shu Pork mixture, and roll up like a wrap. Enjoy!
