π¨βπ³ Step-by-Step Instructions for Keto Egg Roll in a Bowl
Letβs dive into how to make this flavorful Keto Egg Roll in a Bowl! This is a super easy recipe that you can whip up in no time. Follow these simple steps:
π₯ Step 1: Brown the Ground Pork
1οΈβ£ Heat 1 tablespoon of avocado oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
2οΈβ£ Add the ground pork to the skillet. Use a spatula to break it apart as it cooks.
3οΈβ£ Season the pork with a pinch of salt and pepper, and cook until browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. π₯©
π‘ Pro Tip: If you want to reduce the fat, you can drain any excess grease from the pork after cooking.
π₯ Step 2: SautΓ© the Veggies
1οΈβ£ Once the pork is cooked, add the sliced onion and minced garlic to the pan. SautΓ© for 2-3 minutes, until fragrant and softened. π§ π§
2οΈβ£ Add the shredded cabbage to the pan. Stir everything together and cook for about 5 minutes, until the cabbage begins to soften but still has some crunch. π₯¬
π‘ Pro Tip: If you prefer your cabbage softer, cover the skillet and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
π₯ Step 3: Add the Flavorful Sauces
1οΈβ£ Drizzle in the coconut aminos, rice vinegar, and sesame oil. Stir everything together so the flavors coat the cabbage and pork evenly.
2οΈβ£ Let it cook for another 3-4 minutes, allowing the cabbage to absorb the flavor and soften further. π
π₯ Step 4: Scramble the Eggs
1οΈβ£ In a separate pan, heat a little bit of oil and scramble the 2 eggs. Once cooked through, add them into the skillet with the pork and cabbage mixture. π₯
2οΈβ£ Stir everything together, allowing the eggs to break up into small pieces and mix with the other ingredients.
π‘ Pro Tip: For a fluffier egg scramble, whisk the eggs with a splash of water before cooking.
π₯ Step 5: Serve & Garnish
1οΈβ£ Once everything is cooked to your liking, taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt, pepper, or sesame oil if needed.
2οΈβ£ Serve the dish hot, garnished with green onions, sesame seeds, and a sprinkle of crushed red pepper flakes for an extra burst of flavor. π±πΆοΈ
