Cooking Instructions

  • Add ground pork to a large stockpot and cook over medium-heat for 5-6 minutes, stirring and flipping occasionally, until the pork is lightly browned. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the pork to a separate plate, and set aside.
  • Add the olive oil and onion, and stir to combine. Sauté for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the carrots and garlic, and sauté for 2 more minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the cabbage, stock, ginger, and cooked pork, and stir to combine.
  • Continue cooking until the soup reaches a simmer. Then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes, or until the carrots and cabbage are nice and tender. Stir in the sesame oil until combined, then taste and season with salt and black pepper as needed.
  • Serve warm, garnished with your desired toppings. Or refrigerate in sealed containers for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.

Notes

Feel free to use ground pork or alternatives such as ground chicken, shredded pork, smoked sausage, or mushrooms. To make homemade fried egg roll wrappers, cut egg roll wrappers into desired shapes and fry in high-smoke point oil until golden.
