What is Egg Roll in a Bowl?
Egg Roll in a Bowl is a deconstructed version of an egg roll, served as a bowl instead of wrapped in a wrapper and fried. It typically includes similar ingredients to an egg roll filling, such as ground pork or chicken, cabbage or coleslaw mix, soy sauce, sesame oil, and other seasonings. It’s a popular dish in low-carb or keto diets, as it’s often served without the wrapper, making it a healthier alternative to traditional egg rolls.

- Customize the heat level by adjusting the amount of hot honey and sriracha.
- Make a quick sriracha mayo by mixing sriracha, mayo, and a small amount of water. Drizzle over the dish for added flavor.
- Measure the oil before the honey. The remaining oil in the measuring spoon will prevent the honey from sticking to the spoon.
