Egg Roll Bowl
The Egg Roll Bowl recreates the flavors of an egg roll using ground pork, sesame oil, shredded coleslaw mix, carrots, and a savory-sweet sauce made with soy sauce, hoisin, sweet chili sauce, and sriracha. The quick skillet cooking softens the vegetables slightly while preserving some crunch, resulting in a well-balanced texture and bold, layered flavors typical of egg roll fillings without the wrapper.
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 pound ground pork
- 5 cups coleslaw mix divided
- 2 cups carrot shredded
- 1 teaspoon ginger grated
- 1 teaspoon garlic minced
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons sweet chili sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce or oyster sauce
- ½ teaspoon sriracha more or less to taste
- sesame seed for garnish, sliced
- green onion for garnish, sliced
- crispy wonton strips optional (see notes)
Instructions
- In a large skillet, add the sesame oil and heat over medium heat.
- Add the ground pork and brown for 5 minutes, crumbling until no pink remains.
- In a small bowl, add the soy sauce, sweet chili sauce, rice vinegar, hoisin sauce, and sriracha.
- Add 4 cups of the coleslaw mix, the shredded carrots, garlic, ginger, and the sauce into the skillet.
- Cook for another 2 minutes or just until the vegetables are warmed through.
- Remove the skillet from the stovetop and add the last of the coleslaw mix.
- Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions.
Notes
- Leftovers keep well in an airtight container refrigerated for 3-4 days.
- Ground pork can be swapped for scrambled eggs in the initial browning step.
- Add vegetables like shelled edamame, red bell pepper, broccoli, or snow peas for variety.
- Other oils such as vegetable, canola, or olive oil can replace sesame oil.
- Ground beef, turkey, chicken, or vegan substitutes like tempeh or shredded tofu can be used instead of pork.
- If coleslaw mix is unavailable, use thinly sliced or shredded cabbage.
- Pre-shredded ginger paste can be used in place of fresh grated ginger.
- Tamari or coconut aminos can replace soy sauce for gluten-free needs.
- Omit hoisin sauce if preferred.
- Adjust sriracha quantity to taste for desired heat level.
- To add crunch, bake wonton strips coated lightly with oil at 400°F for 7-10 minutes until golden.
