This Keto Egg Roll in a Bowl is flavourful, fast and easy to make, plus super addicting!

INGREDIENTS :-

¾ lb ground pork *see note 1

¼ cup sliced almonds

1 tbsp sesame seeds

1 tsp avocado oil or olive oil

1 ½ tbsp ginger

2 cloves garlic

½ tsp ground black pepper

¾ tsp Chinese 5 spice

400 g bagged coleslaw or 6 cups shredded savoy cabbage *see note 2

2 stalks green onion

2 tsp sesame oil

¼ cup soy sauce or coconut aminos *see note 3

Equipment Needed :-

Skillet

Cutting board & Knife

Grater and/or Garlic press

RECIPE :-

1. Heat a skillet on medium heat. If it is not a non stick pan, add 1/2 tsp butter or avocado/olive oil. Once hot, add the sliced almonds and fry just until slightly golden and aromatic, about 2-3 minutes. Add the sesame seeds and fry until golden, about 1-2 minutes, then pour out the sesame seeds and almonds into a bowl and set aside *see note 4.

2. Return the skillet to the heat and add 1 tsp avocado/olive oil. Peel the garlic and ginger and then either mince them both or grate them with the small side of a cheese grater. Once the oil is hot, add the ginger, garlic and black pepper. Stir them into the oil and fry until fragrant, 1-2 minutes, then add the ground pork/beef. Continue to cook, stirring often, until the meat is no longer pink.

3. Stir in the Chinese 5 spice until fully incorporated and then stir in the bagged coleslaw. Fry until the cabbage is soft, about 4-5 minutes, and chop the green onion into thin slices. Once the cabbage is soft, stir in the green onions, sesame oil, soy sauce, sesame seeds and sliced almonds *see note 5. Serve hot!

Notes :-

1. In a pinch, ground beef or turkey can be used instead, however, the flavour is way better with ground pork!

2. For a faster dish, go for the bagged coleslaw which is already shredded. If you have the time and wish to skip the little bits of carrots that are usually in bagged coleslaw, choose the green savoy cabbage and thinly slice it up or shred it until you have 6 cups.

3. For strict keto, the soy sauce can be swapped out for coconut aminos.

4. Be careful when frying the sesame seeds - they will burn very quickly, so keep a close eye on them!

5. I prefer my cabbage cooked until just soft to retain some of the texture.
