You need one full pound of ground pork. Ground chicken works great too. Sasha often swaps in ground turkey sometimes. Remember, any ground meat works well here. Drain the fat after browning.

Fresh Vegetables and Flavor Builders

Gather your crunch now. You need one cup of shredded carrots. Add one cup of coleslaw mix. Mushrooms are optional but good. Use four ounces sliced mushrooms if you like them. Mince two cloves of garlic finely. Grate one tablespoon of fresh ginger root.

Sauce brings the savory depth. Use low-sodium soy sauce. Tamari is your gluten-free swap. You need one-quarter cup of that liquid. Add two tablespoons of rice vinegar. Season with just one-quarter teaspoon of black pepper.

Ready to cook? This whole recipe takes about 15 minutes of effort. That is fantastic for a busy night. We move fast here. Let’s make this amazing Egg Roll in a Bowl together.

Initial Sauté and Meat Browning

Heat your sesame oil in a large skillet or wok. Keep the heat at medium-high. Add your ground pork or chicken now. Cook it down well. Break the meat apart with your spoon. This usually takes five to seven minutes. Make sure the meat is nicely browned. Drain off any extra fat immediately after cooking.

Toss in the shredded carrots next. Add your coleslaw mix right away too. If you are using mushrooms, add them now. Sauté these veggies for three to four minutes. We want them slightly tender. Don’t overcook them; keep some crunch!
