# Instructions:
01 -
Heat 1 tbsp sesame oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add 1 lb ground pork and cook, breaking it apart, until browned. Drain any excess fat. This is the savory foundation for your Easy Keto Egg Roll in a Bowl (Asian Dinner).
02 -
To the browned pork, add 4 cloves minced garlic, 1 tbsp grated fresh ginger, and 1/2 cup diced yellow onion. Sauté for 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the onion softens and the aromatics are fragrant.
03 -
Incorporate 6 cups shredded green cabbage and 1/4 cup shredded carrot into the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage begins to wilt and soften, reducing in volume.
04 -
In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup tamari (or soy sauce), 2 tbsp rice vinegar, 1 tbsp erythritol, 1 tsp sriracha (optional), 1/4 cup chicken broth, and 1/4 tsp white pepper. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
05 -
Pour the prepared sauce over the pork and vegetable mixture in the skillet. Stir well to combine all ingredients. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the sauce to slightly reduce. This completes your Easy Keto Egg Roll in a Bowl (Asian Dinner).
06 -
Remove from heat. Divide the Easy Keto Egg Roll in a Bowl (Asian Dinner) among four servings. Garnish each bowl generously with 1/4 cup sliced green onions and 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds before serving warm.
# Notes:
01 -
For a different protein, try ground chicken, turkey, or even crumbled firm tofu for a vegetarian option. Adjust cooking time as needed.
02 -
Leftovers store beautifully in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days, making it perfect for meal prep.
03 -
Adjust the 1 tsp sriracha to your preference, or omit it entirely for a milder dish. A dash of red pepper flakes can also add heat.
