Egg Roll in a Bowl

Egg Roll in a Bowl

Egg roll in a bowl has all the savory flavor of a classic egg roll without the wrapper, making it a fast, low-carb dinner. Ground pork and cabbage are stir-fried in a garlicky ginger-soy sauce for a satisfying one-pan meal. It is keto-friendly, quick, and endlessly customizable.

Ingredients

  • 600 g ground pork
  • 6 cups coleslaw mix or shredded cabbage
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce or tamari
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp ginger, grated
  • 4 green onions

Instructions

  1. Brown the ground pork in a large pan over high heat, then drain excess fat.
  2. Add the garlic and ginger and stir-fry until fragrant.
  3. Add the cabbage and stir-fry until wilted and lightly charred.
  4. Pour in the soy sauce and sesame oil and toss to coat.
  5. Cook until the cabbage is tender-crisp.
  6. Top with green onions and serve.

💡 Chef's tip

Cook over high heat and let the cabbage char slightly; this develops the savory, wok-style depth that makes the dish taste like the real thing.

Skipping the wrapper and piling on the cabbage turns a deep-fried appetizer into a light, low-carb main while keeping all the signature egg roll flavor.
