Keto Egg Roll in a Bowl
Description
This recipe starts by browning ground beef in olive oil, seasoned simply with salt and pepper. Garlic and fresh grated ginger are added for aromatic depth and sautéed briefly. Shredded red and white cabbage and grated carrot are then stirred in with coconut aminos and apple cider vinegar, cooking just a few minutes until the vegetables soften yet retain some bite.
Sesame oil is stirred in last to lend a toasted, nutty aroma, and optional chili flakes provide a mild heat. The dish is garnished with sliced spring onions and sesame seeds for freshness and texture. The combination imitates the savory filling of a traditional egg roll but without the carb-heavy wrapper, suitable for low-carb diets.
Serving this dish with a fried egg adds richness and protein. Leftovers store well refrigerated for up to four days or freeze for longer. The flavors develop further with resting, making this bowl a convenient and flavorful option for a satisfying meal.
