Make Egg Roll in a Bowl At Home

Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground pork or ground beef, chicken, or turkey
  • 1 small onion finely chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger minced (or 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger)
  • 1 small green cabbage thinly sliced (about 4 cups)
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce or tamari for gluten-free
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes optional, for heat
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 green onions chopped
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds optional, for garnish
  • Sriracha or hot sauce optional, for serving

Instructions

Cook the Meat:

  • In a large skillet or wok, cook the ground pork over medium-high heat until browned and cooked through, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks. Drain any excess fat if necessary.

Add Aromatics:

  • Add the chopped onion, minced garlic, and minced ginger to the skillet. Cook for about 2-3 minutes until the onion is translucent and the garlic and ginger are fragrant.

Add Vegetables:

  • Add the thinly sliced cabbage and shredded carrots to the skillet. Cook, stirring frequently, for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still slightly crisp.

Season:

  • Stir in the soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, crushed red pepper flakes (if using), salt, and pepper. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

Finish and Serve:

  • Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the chopped green onions.
  • Garnish with sesame seeds if desired.

Optional Toppings:

  • Serve with a drizzle of sriracha or your favorite hot sauce for an extra kick.
