Ingredients

Scale

Protein

  • 1 lb ground pork or turkey

Vegetables

  • 4 cups thinly sliced green or napa cabbage
  • 1 cup grated or julienned carrots
  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced (for garnish)

Aromatics & Seasonings

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce or tamari
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes or sriracha (optional, for heat)

Instructions

  1. Cook the Ground Meat: Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground pork or turkey and cook until browned and fully cooked, breaking it apart as it cooks. This creates the savory base of the dish.
  2. Add Aromatics and Vegetables: Stir in the minced garlic and ginger and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant. Add the shredded cabbage and carrots, stirring frequently. Cook until the vegetables soften but still retain some crunch.
  3. Season and Simmer: Pour in the soy sauce, a splash of sesame oil, and optional red pepper flakes or sriracha. Stir well to combine and let the flavors meld as the cabbage finishes cooking.
  4. Garnish and Serve: Remove from heat and sprinkle with thinly sliced green onions. Toss gently and serve warm, either directly from the skillet or transferred to bowls.

Notes

  • Drain excess liquid if the cabbage releases too much moisture to avoid a soggy dish.
  • Cut vegetables uniformly to ensure even cooking and better texture.
  • Use fresh garlic and ginger for essential flavor depth.
  • Adjust soy sauce gradually, tasting to avoid over-seasoning.
  • Cook on medium-high heat to caramelize meat and vegetables for enhanced flavor.
