Back in my teenage years, when renting videotapes was a thing, I discovered the “world’s best egg rolls”. The owner of the restaurant next to the family-owned video rental store claimed his egg rolls were the world’s best. Unfortunately, he was right. Since then, I’ve searched for a place to buy equally tasty egg rolls. Failing that, I’ve searched out a recipe that isn’t so complicated that I’d actually make it more than once.
This one comes pretty close and I don’t have to ride my bike to have them. I can also stream nearly any movie I’d like, no videotape required!
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground pork
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger (finely grated)
- 3 cloves garlic (minced)
- 12 oz Mann’s Broccoli Cole Slaw (340 g; 1 bag)
- 1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup/honey
Directions
-
Heat a nonstick pan over medium heat.
-
Add the pork, and cook, breaking it up with a spatula, until it is cooked through and no longer pink. Drain if there is excess grease in the pan.
-
Make a space in the middle of the pan and add the sesame oil, ginger, and garlic. Cook for one minute.
-
Add the bag of coleslaw and cook for 3 more minutes, stirring frequently.
-
While slaw is cooking, shake together the soy seasoning, apple cider vinegar, and monk fruit sweetener. Pour it evenly over the pan and toss to coat.
-
Sprinkle with sesame seeds (optional) and green onions and enjoy.
Storage

Portion out into 2-cup capacity storage containers and store for up to 4 days in the fridge.
