Description

Egg Roll in a Bowl! Ground pork browned with garlic and ginger, sautéed carrots and cabbage cooked down in some soy sauce and chili paste, a nice little heap of hot rice. YUM.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 knob of ginger, grated

  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • chili paste to taste
  • 1 pound ground pork
  • 5–6 cups shredded cabbage or coleslaw mix

Notes

Five-Spice: You can make this recipe without it, but I LOVE the flavor that it adds. There’s a little bit of anise in there, and to me, this is what makes it taste like a real egg roll!
