Who doesn’t love egg rolls, the ubiquitous appetizer found at every Chinese restaurant? Crispy, crunchy and filled with savory veggies and sometimes meat, they’re the delicious, customary way to begin a Chinese meal. Egg rolls, however, can wreak havoc on your waistline. The good news is that you can get all the same flavors of a traditional pork egg roll but in a healthier, low-carb way.
Juicy ground pork, finely shredded vegetables and fragrant sesame oil come together in a dish that brings the familiar taste of egg roll filling but without the fried shell. This dish is intended to be eaten out of a bowl and would work well as lunch, dinner or even a midday snack for a quick pick-me-up. Once you make this recipe, you’ll never go back to takeout again.
