A quick and easy low-carb recipe that captures the flavors of an egg roll without the wrapper, featuring crispy ground pork, cabbage, and savory seasonings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground pork (80/20 lean-to-fat ratio)
  • 4 cups shredded green cabbage (about half a small head)
  • 1 medium carrot, shredded or julienned
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
  • 2 stalks green onions, chopped (separate white and green parts)
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce or tamari
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon neutral cooking oil (avocado or canola)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the vegetables: shred cabbage and carrot, mince garlic, grate ginger, and chop green onions (separating white and green parts).
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon neutral oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground pork, breaking it apart, and cook until browned and crispy on edges, about 7 minutes. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
  3. Push pork to one side of the pan. Add garlic, ginger, and white parts of green onions. Stir for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
  4. Add shredded cabbage and carrots. Stir well and cook for 5-7 minutes until cabbage is tender but still slightly crisp with some browned edges.
  5. Pour in soy sauce or tamari, rice vinegar, and toasted sesame oil. Toss to coat evenly. Add red pepper flakes if desired.
  6. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt, pepper, or extra soy sauce. Remove from heat and sprinkle green parts of green onions on top before serving.

Notes

Do not overcrowd the pan to maintain crispiness; cook in batches if needed. Avoid covering the pan while cooking cabbage to prevent steaming. Use toasted sesame oil at the end to preserve its flavor. For reheating, warm gently in a skillet or oven to restore crispness.
