  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 pound ground pork (You can also use ground chicken, turkey, or beef if you prefer)

1 medium onion, thinly sliced

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon ginger, grated (fresh is best)

1 small cabbage, shredded (about 4 cups)

2 medium carrots, julienned or shredded

1/4 cup soy sauce (use tamari for a gluten-free option)

1 tablespoon sesame oil

2 teaspoons rice vinegar

1 teaspoon chili sauce (adjust to taste, optional)

Salt and pepper, to taste

Green onions and sesame seeds for garnish

Instructions

Heat the Oil: In a large skillet or wok, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the ground pork and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon as it cooks.

Sauté the Aromatics: Add the sliced onion to the skillet and sauté for about 2-3 minutes until it starts to soften. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for another minute until fragrant.

Add the Vegetables: Stir in the shredded cabbage and carrots. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender but still crisp, about 5-7 minutes.

Season: Pour the soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, and chili sauce over the vegetable and pork mixture. Stir well to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook for another 2 minutes to let the flavors meld together.

Serve: Remove from heat. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve hot, garnished with sliced green onions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds.
