Step by step

Method

4 steps

  1. 1

    Heat 1 tablespoon sesame oil and 1 tablespoon neutral oil in a large skillet over medium-high until shimmering. Add 1 lb ground pork (or turkey) and cook 5–6 minutes, breaking it up, until browned and cooked through. Drain excess fat if the pan looks greasy.

  2. 2

    Add 1 small diced onion and cook 2 minutes until it softens. Stir in 3 minced garlic cloves and 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

  3. 3

    Add 1 bag (14 oz) coleslaw mix. Toss and cook 4–5 minutes until the cabbage wilts but still has a little bite — you don't want mush.

  4. 4

    Stir in 3 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce, 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, and optional 1 teaspoon sriracha. Taste and adjust. Top with 2 sliced green onions and toasted sesame seeds. You want savory pork and crisp-tender cabbage in a punchy sesame-soy sauce — not a soggy steamed pile or a bland underseasoned skillet.
