Method
 

  1. Start by heating a tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and fresh ginger and sauté for about a minute until fragrant.
  2. Stir in the ground pork (or turkey) and cook until no longer pink, about 4-5 minutes. Break it up with a spatula for even browning.

  4. Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet for about 30 seconds on each side. Spoon a generous amount of filling into each and fold over the sides.
  5. To serve, place the tacos on a platter garnished with cilantro and a drizzle of hoisin sauce or Sriracha.
