Ingredients

• 1 block (14 oz) Extra-firm tofu
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 3 cups (shredded) Green cabbage
• 1 cup (shredded) Carrots
• 1 cup (sliced) Shiitake mushrooms
• 3 stalks (sliced thin) Green onions
• 2 cloves (minced) Garlic
• 1 teaspoon (minced) Ginger
• 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons Hoisin sauce
• 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
• 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons Water
• 6 pieces Tortillas (medium-sized)
• 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds (optional for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Press the tofu block to remove excess water by placing it between two plates and weighing it down with something heavy, such as a can, for 10-15 minutes. Then slice the tofu into thin strips.

Step 2

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the tofu strips and cook until golden and crispy on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the tofu and set it aside.

Step 3

In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the minced garlic and ginger, and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the shredded cabbage, carrots, and shiitake mushrooms to the skillet. Cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the vegetables are slightly wilted but still crisp.

Step 5

In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, hoisin sauce, sesame oil, cornstarch, and water to create a sauce.

Step 6

Return the tofu to the skillet and pour the sauce over the vegetable mixture. Stir to coat everything evenly and cook for an additional 2 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.

Step 7

Warm the tortillas in the microwave or on a dry skillet for a few seconds to make them pliable.

Step 8

Spoon the Mu Shu mixture into the center of each tortilla, rolling them up tightly to form wraps.

Step 9

Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!
