Prep the Ingredients

Start by gathering the following ingredients: 1 pound of ground pork, 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of hoisin sauce, 1 teaspoon of fresh ginger (minced), 2 cloves of garlic (minced), 1/4 cup of green onions (chopped), 1/2 cup of shredded carrots, 1/2 cup of bean sprouts, 1/4 cup of cilantro leaves, 8 small flour tortillas, and cooking oil for frying.

Cook the Filling

In a large skillet, heat some cooking oil over medium-high heat. Add the ground pork and cook until browned. Then, stir in the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, minced ginger, and minced garlic. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the flavors combine. Next, add the shredded carrots, bean sprouts, and green onions. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are slightly tender. Finally, remove the skillet from heat and garnish with fresh cilantro leaves.

Warm Up the Tortillas

Now it's time to warm up those tortillas! You can heat them in the microwave by placing a stack of tortillas on a microwave-safe plate, covering them with a damp paper towel, and microwaving for about 30 seconds. Alternatively, you can warm them on the stovetop by heating a dry skillet over medium heat and cooking each tortilla for about 15-20 seconds on each side.

Assemble the Chinese Tacos

Take a warm tortilla and spoon some of the pork filling onto the center. Roll up the tortilla tightly, tucking in the sides as you go. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling. You can secure each Chinese taco with a toothpick if needed.
