1

Combine pork, 2 Tbs. of the sherry, 2 tsp. of the soy sauce, 1 Tbs. cornstarch, and the sesame oil in a medium bowl; toss well to coat and set aside. Combine the remaining 4 Tbs. sherry, 2 Tbs. soy sauce, and 1 tsp. cornstarch with the hoisin sauce in a small bowl; set aside.

2

Heat a nonstick wok or a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat until a drop of water sizzles. Swirl in 2 tsp. of canola oil, then add the pork mixture. Stir-fry until just cooked through, 4-5 minutes; transfer to a plate. Swirl the remaining 1 tsp. canola oil, then add the mushrooms, ginger and garlic. Stir-fry until softened, 3-4 minutes. Add the cabbage and 2 Tablespoons water; stir-fry until cabbage wilts and is crisp-tender, 2-3 minutes. Add scallions, pork and sherry mixture. Cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture boils and thickens, about 1 minute.

Wrap tortillas in a damp paper towel and microwave until hot.

4

Spoon about 2/3 cup of the pork mixture onto each tortilla, roll up and serve.

Hey, This One's A Keeper!- would make it again.  "Not your typical Mu Shu with the Chinese pancakes- this one is more like Mu Shu tacos!  It was still very good, especially if you're on a diet and you're looking for something substantial."
