  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Protein and Vegetables

  • 1 pound ground beef (93% lean, 7% fat)
  • 1 jalapeno, seeded and chopped
  • 2 large carrots, peeled and shredded
  • 1 bunch green onions, chopped (whites and greens separated)
  • 2 (10-ounce) bags coleslaw angel hair (20 ounces cabbage total)
  • 4 cloves garlic, smashed and minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
  • 1/2 cup fresh cilantro (for garnish)

Seasonings and Sauces

  • 1 and 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt (or 1 teaspoon table salt)
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper (or to taste)
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon miso paste (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon sriracha sauce (optional, or to taste)

Sriracha Mayo

  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha sauce (or to taste)
  • 2 teaspoons rice vinegar (optional)

Garnishes

  • Toasted sesame seeds
  • Extra chopped cilantro

Instructions

  1. Prep the vegetables: Prepare all your vegetables by seeding and chopping the jalapeno, peeling and shredding the carrots, and chopping the green onions, separating the whites and greens. This ensures a smooth cooking process as the dish cooks quickly.
  2. Start cooking the beef and vegetables: Heat a 12-inch high-sided skillet over medium heat and add the ground beef. Immediately add the chopped jalapeno, shredded carrots, and the white parts of the green onions to the pan.
  3. Season and cook the beef: Sprinkle the kosher salt and black pepper over the mixture. Break up the ground beef and cook for 5-8 minutes until fully browned and no pink remains.
  4. Add garlic: Stir in the smashed and minced garlic cloves and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
  5. Add cabbage and sauces: Add the two 10-ounce bags of coleslaw angel hair cabbage immediately, then pour in soy sauce, rice vinegar, hoisin sauce, and sesame oil. If using, add the miso paste and sriracha sauce at this stage.
  6. Cook cabbage until wilted: Stir everything together and cook for 3-5 minutes until the cabbage is softened and wilted.
  7. Add ginger and finish cooking: Stir in the minced ginger and cook for an additional 1 minute.
  8. Remove from heat and add fresh herbs: Take the skillet off the heat, then stir in the chopped cilantro and the remaining green onion greens.
  9. Make sriracha mayo: In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sriracha sauce, and rice vinegar to taste, adjusting the spice level to preference.
  10. Serve and garnish: Plate the egg roll in a bowl mixture, drizzle with the sriracha mayo, and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and extra cilantro.
  11. Optional serving suggestions: Enjoy as a low-carb dish on its own or serve alongside white rice, brown rice, or coconut jasmine rice. Complement with Thai or Asian cucumber salad or pickled red onions for extra flavor and crunch.

Notes

  • Adjust the jalapeno and sriracha quantities for desired spice levels.
  • Miso paste is optional but adds depth of flavor and umami.
  • This recipe is ideal for meal prep as it reheats well.
  • Use lean ground beef for a healthier option and less grease.
  • Can be made gluten-free by substituting tamari for soy sauce and choosing gluten-free hoisin sauce.
