Pork and Vegetable San Choy Bow

Make sure to check the labels of the sauces you are using so as to avoid MSG. You absolutely need to mash the pork with a whisk while in the frying stage in order to get the right texture with this one or it just won't taste as good.

I used a vitamix for 'grating' the carrot, zucchini and mushrooms to make it quicker but a traditional grater would work just fine.
