 1 tablespoon dark rum  2
teaspoons dark Oriental sesame oil  1 small onion, sliced 
 1 pound pork tenderloin

STICKY RICE  1 cup long-grain white rice (not converted) 
 2 tablespoons rice-wine

BEANS  1 can (about 16 ounces) black beans, rinsed and 
drained  1/2 teaspoon Chinese

Thinly slice pork. Layer a
small amount of rice, then beans on each warm tortilla. 
Top with pork. Fold up bottom
of tortilla to partially cover filling, then fold sides 
in toward center. Roll up egg-roll
style. Top with Grilled Pineapple Salsa and scallions.
