Print Recipe

A quick and simple meal that mimics the flavors of egg rolls without the wrapper, featuring ground beef, cabbage, and carrots.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb lean ground beef (85/15)
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil
  • ½ tsp fine sea salt, or to taste
  • ¼ tsp black pepper, or to taste
  • ½ medium onion, finely diced
  • 1 medium carrot, julienned or coarsely grated
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 3 cups green cabbage, thinly sliced
  • 1 tsp ground ginger
  • ¼ cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tsp sesame oil
  • ½ tsp granulated sugar
  • 1 Tbsp chopped green onion (optional, for garnish)
  • ¼ tsp sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef and cook for about 5 minutes, breaking it apart with a spatula, until browned and no longer pink. Season with salt and pepper.
  2. Stir in the diced onion and grated carrot. Cook for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onion is soft.
  3. Add the minced garlic and cook for another 30 seconds, stirring constantly.
  4. Add the cabbage, ground ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, and sugar. Continue to sauté for 5–7 minutes, or until the cabbage is tender and slightly wilted.
  5. Remove from heat and garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds, if using. Serve warm.
