Egg Roll Stir Fry with Pork
This egg roll stir fry with pork is everything you love about an egg roll—but without the work. It’s fast, flavorful, and unbelievably simple. Even better, it’s ready in under 10 minutes, making it one of my go-to quick weeknight dinners.
Tender ground pork cooks perfectly with tamari, sesame oil, coconut aminos, and a touch of hot sauce. The flavor is bold, savory, and deeply satisfying. Then I add fresh ginger, cilantro, scallions, and roasted cashews for crunch. Mix everything together, and you get a dish that feels like your favorite egg roll—but lighter and healthier.
If you want extra crunch, add crispy wonton strips on top. It’s optional, but always worth it.
I love a classic egg roll. The crispy wrapper and tender veggies inside are irresistible. However, frying isn’t something I love doing often. So this recipe was born. It gives the same flavors with none of the hassle.
Use Store-Prepped Vegetables for Speed
We all need shortcuts in the kitchen sometimes. And prepping vegetables can take time—lots of peeling and chopping. That’s why I often use store-prepped veggies in this gluten free stir fry.
For this recipe, I use a pre-shredded broccoli slaw mix. It usually includes carrots, cauliflower, and red cabbage, and it works beautifully. It saves time, reduces cleanup, and keeps this recipe truly fast.
Here are some items I love buying prepped:
shredded cabbage
grated carrots
peeled garlic cloves
sliced mushrooms
cut-up mango
With ingredients like these ready to go, this egg roll stir fry becomes unbelievably simple. And most importantly, everyone in my family loves it. I know yours will too.

Pro Tip:
For even more flavor, brown the pork deeply before adding the sauces. Those crispy bits add so much richness to the stir fry.
