Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 Tbsp. vegetable oil
  • 1 garlic clove, finely chopped
  • 1 Tbsp. finely chopped peeled ginger
  • 1 lb. ground pork
  • 1 Tbsp. toasted sesame oil
  • 1/4 head of green cabbage, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 yellow onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup shredded carrot
  • 1/4 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 Tbsp. sriracha
  • Kosher salt, to taste
  • 1 scallion, thinly sliced
  • 1 Tbsp. toasted sesame seeds

Instructions

  1. Heat aromatics: In a large skillet over medium heat, heat the vegetable oil. Add finely chopped garlic and ginger. Cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 minute, to build the base flavor.
  2. Cook pork: Add the ground pork to the skillet. Break it up into small pieces using a wooden spoon. Cook until browned in parts and fully cooked through, approximately 8 to 10 minutes.
  3. Add vegetables and sauce: Push the cooked pork to one side of the skillet and pour in the toasted sesame oil. Add the thinly sliced cabbage, yellow onion, and shredded carrot. Stir everything together with the pork. Pour in the reduced-sodium soy sauce and sriracha. Continue cooking, stirring frequently, until the cabbage softens and becomes tender, about 5 to 8 minutes. Season with kosher salt to taste.
  4. Serve and garnish: Divide the pork and vegetable mixture evenly among serving bowls. Top each bowl with thinly sliced scallions and toasted sesame seeds for a fresh and nutty finish.

Notes

  • You can substitute ground pork with ground chicken or turkey for a leaner option.
  • Adjust the amount of sriracha to control the spiciness level.
  • Serve with steamed rice or cauliflower rice for a more substantial meal.
  • For a vegetarian version, replace pork with tofu crumbles or tempeh and use vegetarian soy sauce.
  • Ensure to cook the pork fully for food safety.
