Description

A quick, delicious, and healthy alternative to traditional egg rolls, packed with all the flavors without the extra calories.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground pork
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon ginger, minced
  • 1/2 cup onion, diced
  • 1/2 cup carrots, shredded
  • 1/2 cup cabbage, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon Sriracha sauce (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 green onions, chopped
  • Sesame seeds, for garnish

Instructions

  • Heat sesame oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground pork and cook until browned and cooked through, breaking it into crumbles as it cooks.
  • Add garlic, ginger, and diced onion to the skillet. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until onions are translucent.
  • Stir in shredded carrots and sliced cabbage. Cook for 4-5 minutes until vegetables are tender.
  • In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, rice vinegar, and Sriracha (if using). Pour over the pork and vegetables in the skillet.
  • Stir well to combine and cook for another 2-3 minutes until heated through.
  • Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Remove from heat and sprinkle with chopped green onions and sesame seeds before serving.

Notes

  • You can substitute ground pork with ground chicken or turkey for a leaner option.
  • Adjust the amount of Sriracha sauce based on your heat preference.
  • Serve over steamed rice or enjoy it on its own for a low-carb meal.
