6 garlic cloves minced
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt plus more, to taste
1/4 teaspoon black pepper plus more, to taste

1/4 cup coconut aminos
1 1/2 tablespoons rice vinegar

Instructions

Egg Roll in a Bowl

Heat up a large wok or skillet over medium heat for 2 minutes. Add oils and let those heat through for another minute.
Add onions and carrots. Let cook for about 2 minutes, stirring once. Add in the coleslaw / cabbage mix and cook over medium heat until tender, stirring occasionally. This will take another 7-8 minutes.
Add in garlic cloves and salt and pepper. Cook for an additional 1 minute, giving everything a nice stir to ensure the garlic does not burn.
Add in ginger, coconut aminos, and rice vinegar. Cook for 1 more minute. Add in ground pork, and break into pieces with a meat mincer or wooden spoon. Cook over medium heat until no longer pink, about 5-7 more minutes.
Stir in green onions, and cook for 2 more minutes. Taste for additional salt and pepper.
Serve warm with extra sliced green onions and drizzle with sauce. Enjoy!

Sauce

Mix together all of the ingredients in a small bowl until smooth throughout. Taste for additional hot sauce and acid.
Season with salt and pepper.
It will keep for about 1 week in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Store separately from egg roll in a bowl.

Notes

You can use (1) fresh cabbage or use a coleslaw mix (green cabbage, red cabbage, and carrot.) Just make sure you have about 6 cups total!
I like to buy already minced ginger. It comes in a small glass jar and makes prep much easier. Just look in the Asian food section of your grocery store.
You can use your favorite hot sauce in this recipe. I love Frank's Red Hot and Sriracha. Use 2-3 tablespoons, depending on spice preference.
Start with juicing 1/2 of a lime. Taste it, and you can add the other half if you'd like more acid.
