This fast-paced egg roll in a bowl captures all the bold, savory satisfaction of a traditional takeaway spring roll but drops the fried pastry wrapper for a clean, low-carb skillet meal. By stir-frying a mountainous heap of crisp, shredded cabbage and carrots directly with tender protein and fluffy scrambled eggs, you achieve an exceptional crunch in less than fifteen minutes. Drizzled with toasted sesame oil and a sharp splash of soy, this high-protein dish works brilliantly for lean meal-prep routines.

Ingredients

 3 large eggs, lightly beaten  2 cups napa cabbage or white cabbage, finely shredded  1/2 cup carrot, julienned or grated  2 cloves garlic, finely minced  1 tsp fresh ginger, grated  1.5 tbsp dark soy sauce and 1 tsp toasted sesame oil  2 stalks spring onion, sliced for garnish

Step 1

Heat a splash of oil in a large non-stick frying pan or wok over medium heat, pour in the beaten eggs, and scramble them gently until just cooked through before transferring to a side plate.

Step 2

Add a tiny drop of oil to the same pan, toss in the minced garlic and grated ginger, and sauté for roughly 30 seconds until intense and aromatic.

Step 3

Dump the shredded cabbage and julienned carrots into the hot pan, stir-frying on a high heat for 3 to 4 minutes until the greens just begin to wilt but retain a sharp, structural crunch.

Step 4

Pour the soy sauce and toasted sesame oil over the vegetables, fold the scrambled eggs back into the mixture to heat through, and garnish with a handful of fresh spring onions before serving.
