Anyone one else love Egg Roll in a Bowl?

We rescue cats — Fri, 23 Jun 2023 11:44:45 GMT

We love this, and it is very versatile in using leftover found in the fridge too! I love eggrolls but should not eat them so I make my own without the wrapper. I've tried a lot of recipes over the years, this one is the favorite!

INGREDIENTS - Serves 4 (or the two of us!)

1 lb ground beef or pork
1 teaspoon minced garlic
14 ounces shredded cabbage or coleslaw mix
1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce, or liquid aminos
1 teaspoon ground ginger
2 teaspoons sriracha
1 whole egg
1 tablespoon sesame oil
2 tablespoons sliced green onions

INSTRUCTIONS

In a large skillet, brown the pork or beef until no longer pink. Add the garlic and sautee for 30 seconds. Add the cabbage/coleslaw, soy sauce, ginger, and sautee until desired tenderness. You can add a little water if you need more liquid to sautee the coleslaw down.
Make a well in the center of the skillet and add the egg. Scramble until done over low heat.
Stir in sriracha. Drizzle with sesame oil and sprinkle with green onions. Add additional soy sauce and sriracha if desired.

I have added riced cauliflower (or actual rice if you wish!)

along with diced chicken or pork if I have it leftover in the fridge. This is from "The Girl Who Ate Everything", we love her recipes.

Thank you for the recipe @We rescue cats I have not eaten egg roll in a bowl but reading the ingredients I think it will have good flavor. I will try with beef. I can get in a rut eating the same and like to try something new from time-to-time.

Yes! I make mine in the pressure cooker--so fast and easy!

The recipe I have doesn't include the egg, green onion or sciracha. I normally use half soy sauce and half worcestershire sauce as I'm not all that fond of soy sauce. I made it quite a bit but then got tired of it. If I do make it again, I'll definitely include those three ingredients.

DD and I are huge fans of the various bowl meals --as well as siracha and we would cook up the egg and just put it whole on top of this recipe--yummy!!!

Yummy bowl.....

I would remove the meat/eggs and replace with tofu. Lovin' all the fixins!

When we first began keto, Eggroll in a Bowl was one of my go to's. I always used the liquid aminos since soy sauce isn't KF. I haven't made it in awhile. I should get it in the rotation again,

Sounds delicious .... but I thought sriracha was a very hot spice. Due to that assumption, I've never used it.

@Tinkrbl44 it can be very spicy but you control the amount you want in the dish, I use the amount listed in the recipe but you might start out with just a touch....on none at all. I think the dish would still be good without the heat.

I like to undercook the cabbage, I love the crunchiness!

Thank you .... and your thread reminded me I have a package of Chun King Egg Rolls in the freezer ... and plan to prepare them today.

I love egg rolls and these should be eaten, although I will try this recipe in the future.

We love coconut aminios...I buy the large bottle at Costco and use it for almost everything since it is so much lower in sodium than soy sauce. I make fried rice using cauliflower rice but may use this recipe for a change but use chicken instead of the beef or pork.

VanSleepy — Mon, 26 Jun 2023 15:24:03 GMT

I make something similar at least once a week. Mine has no egg and no hot sauce, though, and many times no meat. And since lower sodium soy sauce still has a ton of sodium without much flavor, I use General Tso's stir fry sauce.

@Trailrun23 I have read about coconut aminos. Does it really taste like soy sauce? It would be great to find a real substitute.

My recipe doesn't have egg in it. I use pork sausage and add chopped water chestnuts for extra crunch. Such a good dish!

@@phoenixbrd -- how much tofu and what kind do you use? Also, how do you cook it in this recipe?

And thank you to @We rescue cats for the original post!

Apologies to @phoenixbrd for the typo in your nic above!

I love Egg Roll in a Bowl! My recipe doesn't include siracha or green onion either and I omit the egg. I do it with ground turkey and sometimes add red pepper. I also like to add Hoisin sauce.

I love Sriracha. I recently ran out and couldn't find it anywhere. I checked Amazon and they had it available for $49 for only 17oz.

I checked and read that it has become hard to get. People are stealing the bottles from restaurant tables. I wasn't paying an arm and leg for it, but finally found an "off brand" for just under $10. I haven't tried it yet.

That recipe looks great. I am going to give it a try. Thanks for posting.

@Carmie I was out of Sriracha as well so went to Walmart, and they were out, the stocker recommended one his wife used, Sky Valley. It is a good sub if you find that one.

Re: Anyone one else love Egg Roll in a Bowl?

Carmie — Tue, 18 Jul 2023 15:24:43 GMT

@We rescue cats I had to smile when I saw your recommendation. I found this brand about two weeks ago in a different store than where I usually shop.

They just had a few bottles left, so I grabbed one. I haven't tried it out yet. There were no other brands to be found anywhere that I could find.

I am happy to hear it is a good substitute brand. Who would ever guess sriracha would be scarce?
