Ingredients for Keto Egg Roll in a Bowl
Don’t be intimidated by the list of ingredients. Most are pantry staples like vinegar and sesame oil that you’ll use to make the tasty sauce.
Here’s what you need for the recipe.
- Ground pork.
- Fresh garlic. Crush the cloves with the side of your knife, or easier still, use a Microplane to grate them into a paste.
- Fresh ginger. Scrape the peel off with a knife or even the back of a spoon. You can mince it with a knife if you feel confident in your skills — but it’s just as easy to grate it with a microplane.
- Shredded cabbage or cabbage slaw mix. Crunchy and full of nutrients.
- Soy sauce, gluten-free tamari, or coconut aminos. Whatever works for you and your diet.
- Rice vinegar. Double-check the nutrition facts on this one. Make sure you’re not using “Seasoned” rice vinegar, which usually contains sugar.
- Other veggie options: Green onions, carrots, even broccoli.
- Sesame oil.
- Sriracha sauce, or your favorite hot sauce
How to make Keto Egg Roll in a Bowl
This keto egg roll bowl comes together in one large skillet — or wok if you have one!
- Gather your ingredients and let’s get started. Start off by browning ground pork in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onions, garlic, and fresh ginger and cook until softened and translucent. Add soy sauce, sesame oil, sriracha, and rice vinegar to season. Taste, and season with salt and pepper if needed.
- Then, add the thinly sliced cabbage and carrots (if using). Add a bit of water or stock, and toss to coat. Let the cabbage cook for about 3-5 minutes — or until it’s as soft as you like.
- Garnish with green onions and sesame seeds, and dig in.

Made this tonight and it was delicious!
I subbed dried ginger for fresh and added a tsp if Chinese 5 Spice
So good! Thanks for the recipe
Thanks Lisa!
I’ll have to try adding some Chinese 5 Spice next time — sounds yummy!
So delicious!!!!! Full of flavour w/ Chinese 5 spice & extra ginger
Hi Julie, I’m glad you like it!
I’ve made this a few times now. I use both regular ground pork and hot Italian pork. I also add a few teaspoons of chili garlic sauce along with the other spices. We like all things spicy so I also finely mince a jalapeno pepper to saute along with the onions and garlic. We love this stuff! Thanks for the recipe!
I made this today! Very delish! I added a bit of Splenda for a Yoshidas taste! My himusbad loves it! I too will get some Chinese 5 Spice.
Hi Lorie, that sounds delicious! Thanks for rating 🙂
I don’t eat pork not for any reason other than I can’t get it past my nose since I was a kid! Made this in two versions tonight, chicken & pork (son & hubby eat pork)! They loved it & so did I! Chicken version leftovers will be for lunch Monday (if they survive son’s refrigerator raid after work tonight!) Thank you for the recipe!
Just made this for lunch. I was hoping to keep leftovers for later but my fam decided it was so delish that they would finish it of for me! I guess this will have to become a regular dish. Thanks for also suggesting ‘alternates’ so I could use what I had on hand!
You bet! I’m glad you all liked it!
question what is the serving size that you are calculating the calories for? Just want to make sure I am fitting it properly into my macros.
Thanks!
Hi Emily,
I calculated one serving as 1/6th of the recipe. Sorry, I don’t have a “cup” measurement…Next time we make this for dinner I’ll measure 🙂
Where is the egg?
This recipe doesn’t have eggs in it, but it would be great with a fried egg on top if you want!
What’s the typical serving size? One cup?
Hey there,
I calculated one serving as 1/6th of the recipe. Sorry, I don’t have a “cup” measurement…Next time we make this for dinner I’ll measure 🙂
This sounds delicious! I’m going to make it tonight for dinner. I can’t wait!!
Made this last night for dinner……HUGE HIT WITH EVERYONE!!
SO EASY TO MAKE, AND SOOOO GOOD!! Thank you for the recipe!!
Okay… So, I am NOT the best cook and this is so easy to make. delicious and filling. I am new to the keto thing and this made it an easy dinner.

Thanks on your marvelous posting! I definitely enjoyed reading it, you’re a great author.I will make sure
to bookmark your blog and may come back in the foreseeable future.
I want to encourage you continue your great job, have a nice day!
This was great! Pretty much made as is except I added some broccoli that was partially steamed. I didn’t have the sriracha sauce so I added 1/2 tsp of red pepper flakes. Husband really liked it too! This is a keeper for us. Thanks for posting.
I made this last night and it was actually really good. My husband even said he’d have it again. Only downfall like with any Chinese food…. I was starving a couple hours later. I’ll have to try adding the broccoli next time for more substance.
Wow, awesome blog layout! How long have you been blogging for? you made blogging look easy. The overall look of your site is fantastic, as well as the content!
This was very delicious. I made this with sherry vinegar because couldn’t find the rice vinegar. I used a slaw mix that had julienned kale in it. Added, bean sprouts, peas and some minced cilantro/coriander. Forgot to add the broth, but it was plenty saucy. Came together fairly quickly.
This is my new go-to recipe. I use a slaw mix from the store (so many to choose from!), so the recipe is quick and simple to make. It’s flavourful, and my whole family likes it.
I have gluten, dairy, and beef allergies, and anytime my family is having something I can’t eat, I whip this up for myself.
That’s great to hear! Thanks for your comment.
VERY good—thank you!!
