Ingredients
1 lb ground pork Pinch of white or black pepper
1/2 cup + 1 tablespoon low sodium Tamari (or low sodium soy sauce)
1/4 cup low sodium chicken broth or water
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 tablespoon ginger paste (such as Gourmet Gardens)
2 teaspoons sesame oil Pinch of red chili pepper flakes (optional)
8 oz stir fry rice noodles (Thai Kitchen brand recommended)
14 oz bag coleslaw mix (with carrots and red cabbage)
1 bunch green onions (greens cut into 2” pieces, whites sliced thin)
4 cloves garlic, minced or pressed
Instructions
-
In a bowl, mix ground pork with a pinch of pepper and 1 tablespoon Tamari. Set aside to marinate briefly.
-
In a small bowl, whisk together remaining 1/2 cup Tamari, chicken broth, rice vinegar, ginger paste, sesame oil, and chili flakes if using. Set aside.
-
Cook rice noodles according to package instructions (typically 4–6 minutes), then drain and rinse under cold water. Set aside.
-
In a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat, cook the pork mixture, breaking it up until browned and cooked through.
-
Add coleslaw mix and green onions to the skillet. Stir fry for 3–4 minutes, until vegetables are tender. Add garlic and cook for another minute.
-
Add cooked noodles and sauce to the skillet. Stir fry everything together for 4–5 minutes, until noodles are heated through and coated in sauce. Add a splash more broth or water if noodles need more softening.
-
Remove from heat and let sit for at least 10 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to fully develop.
-
Optional: Scramble 2 eggs into the center of the pan after the veggies cook, for added richness.
