Description
A quick and delightful recipe for Crispy Egg Roll Stir-Fry that combines ground meat with fresh vegetables and a savory sauce.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 pound ground pork (or chicken)
- 1 cup shredded carrots
- 1 cup chopped green cabbage
- 1/2 cup sliced green onions
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 large eggs, beaten
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro (for garnish)
Instructions
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the ground pork (or chicken) and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat if necessary.
- Add the shredded carrots, chopped cabbage, green onions, garlic, and ginger to the skillet. Stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.
- In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes (if using). Pour this sauce over the stir-fried mixture and stir well to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Push the stir-fry mixture to one side of the skillet. Pour the beaten eggs into the empty side and scramble them until fully cooked, about 2 minutes. Once cooked, mix the eggs into the stir-fry.
- Remove from heat and garnish with chopped cilantro before serving.
Notes
- For a vegetarian option, substitute the ground meat with tofu or tempeh and use vegetable broth instead of soy sauce for a lighter flavor.
- Add your favorite stir-fry vegetables such as bell peppers, snap peas, or broccoli for extra color and nutrition.
