This easy-to-make keto egg roll soup will satisfy your hunger for Chinese food!
Every once in a while I get a serious hankering for Chinese food… and that’s when I make this keto Chinese pork egg roll soup.
It’s a tasty union of pork, sesame, and ginger that really calms the craving. This soup is hearty and satisfying while keeping carbs low and flavors high. I really like to top mine with toasted sesame seeds, green onions, and a squirt of sriracha for an extra kick!
Recipe tips to keep in mind when making Keto Chinese Pork Egg Roll Soup:
- Spice things up by adding a dash of sriracha to your bowl. Sriracha is a spicy sauce made with red chili and garlic that’s commonly served with Vietnamese, Chinese, and Thai cuisine. My favorite brands are Huy Fong and Merfs (I love the Merfs variety pack of sauces which includes sriracha).
- If you’re not a pork fan, feel free to substitute with ground turkey, ground chicken, or even ground beef. When I make this soup with ground beef, I like to use beef broth instead of chicken broth to give it a richer taste.
- Vegetarians, try using a combination of TVP (textured vegetable protein), and finely diced mushrooms in place of the ground pork. I also recommend adding in an extra tablespoon of sesame, avocado, or coconut oil.
- Craving crackers with your soup? No problem, make our easy peasy 2-ingredient keto crackers and dunk them right in your soup bowl!
