Wrapperless Eggroll

Ground meat (turkey, pork, or burger) I had a 1 ½ pounds of pork on hand
Next time I make this, I'll actually take pictures!
Minced Garlic
Chopped onion
Ginger, fresh or ground; I had ground on hand
Cayenne pepper
Black pepper
Cabbage, 1 head (Chopped)

Sauce:
Soy sauce
Honey
Ginger
Cayenne pepper
Onion powder
Garlic powder

As usual, I don’t measure anything. So, basically this is how I prepared this meal (one that my Honey said he’d like to have again. J Yay!)

Chopped a medium onion, add it and minced garlic to a skillet over medium heat, along with a tablespoon or so of oil (I used coconut oil.) Cook until onion begins to go translucent, scoot onions to edges of skillet and add ground meat to center. Season meat with ground ginger, cayenne and black pepper, stir the meat and seasonings to combine then brown meat.

As meat is browning, cut up your head of cabbage. I just used regular old cabbage, but nappa cabbage would be very good in this as well. Once meat is browned, or if you get impatient like me, once the meat is mostly browned , add the cabbage and cover. Every 5 minutes or so, stir the cabbage into the meat to encourage its wilting. While cabbage is cooking, combine soy sauce, honey, ground ginger, cayenne pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder in a small bowl. Taste sauce and adjust to your liking. I ended up with maybe ¼  a cup (or more) of sauce. Pour this over everything and stir well. Serve! 


This would be excellent over a bed of rice, but we had it as is, and it was scrumptious!!!
