Ingredients
This recipe moves fast so I suggest having all of your ingredients prepped, chopped, measured, and ready before you start your stove. Here are the simple ingredients you’ll need for the egg roll in a bowl:
Ground meat – We used lean 85/15 ground beef, but just about any fat content will work. Onion – Finely chopped onion adds flavor and disappears into the dish. Carrot – You’ll need a large carrot julienne or shredded.Garlic – use fresh garlic which adds the best flavor. Cabbage – we prefer to finely slice the cabbage and to do this you can use a knife or a mandolin slicer. Soy sauce – We used low-sodium soy sauce but regular soy sauce may be used, but adjust the salt to taste. You can also use a gluten-free soy sauce for a gluten-free option, or Coconut Aminos for soy-free. Sesame oil – The sesame oil adds the traditional and authentic flavor of an egg roll.Seasoning – We used ground ginger, sugar, salt, and pepper for the seasoning.
