Ingredients: For the Bowl:

  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon ginger, grated
  • 1/2 head green cabbage, thinly sliced
  • 2 medium carrots, julienned
  • 3 green onions, thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce or tamari
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Sesame seeds for garnish (optional)
  • Fresh cilantro for garnish (optional)

For the Sauce:

  • 1/4 cup soy sauce or tamari
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon Sriracha sauce (adjust to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon erythritol or preferred keto-friendly sweetener
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions:

  1. Heat sesame oil and olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Add the ground pork to the skillet and cook until browned and no longer pink, breaking it apart with a spatula as it cooks.
  3. Once the pork is cooked through, add the chopped onion, minced garlic, and grated ginger to the skillet. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the onion is translucent and fragrant.
  4. Stir in the thinly sliced cabbage and julienned carrots, mixing well to combine with the pork and aromatics.
  5. Cook the mixture for 5-7 minutes, or until the cabbage is wilted and the carrots are tender-crisp, stirring occasionally.
  6. In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce (or tamari), rice vinegar, and salt and pepper to taste. Pour the sauce over the cabbage and pork mixture in the skillet, stirring to coat evenly.
  7. Reduce the heat to medium-low and let the ingredients simmer together for an additional 3-5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
  8. Meanwhile, prepare the sauce by combining soy sauce (or tamari), rice vinegar, Sriracha sauce, sesame oil, erythritol (or preferred sweetener), and garlic powder in a separate bowl. Adjust seasoning to taste.
  9. Once the cabbage and pork mixture is cooked to your desired consistency, remove the skillet from the heat.
  10. Drizzle the prepared sauce over the Egg Roll in a Bowl, tossing gently to combine and evenly coat the ingredients.
  11. Garnish with thinly sliced green onions, sesame seeds, and fresh cilantro, if desired.
