– **4 cups chicken broth** (or vegetable broth for a vegetarian version)
– **3 cups shredded cabbage** (Napa cabbage or regular cabbage works)
– **1 small onion**, diced
– **3 cloves garlic**, minced
– **1 tablespoon fresh ginger**, grated (or 1 teaspoon ground ginger)
– **3 tablespoons soy sauce** (or tamari for gluten-free)
– **1 teaspoon rice vinegar** (optional, for a tangy kick)
– **1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes** (optional, for spice)

### How to Make Low Carb Egg Roll Soup
#### Step 1: Brown the Ground Meat
Start by heating **sesame oil** (or olive oil) in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the **ground pork** (or your preferred ground meat) to the pot. Cook it until browned and crumbled, about **5-7 minutes**. Stir occasionally to break it apart. Once browned, season with a little salt and pepper to taste. Remove any excess fat if needed.
#### Step 2: Sauté the Aromatics
Add the **diced onion**, **minced garlic**, and **grated ginger** to the pot with the ground meat. Stir them into the meat and cook for another **2-3 minutes** until the onions soften and the mixture becomes fragrant. The ginger will infuse the soup with a nice, warm, aromatic flavor.
#### Step 3: Add the Broth and Cabbage
Pour in the **chicken broth** and bring the mixture to a simmer. Once it’s simmering, add the **shredded cabbage** to the pot. Stir it in and let it cook for **5-7 minutes**, or until the cabbage is tender but still has a slight crunch. The cabbage will wilt down as it cooks, creating the perfect texture for this soup.
Step 5: Garnish and Serve
Once the soup is simmering and the cabbage is tender, remove the pot from the heat. Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with freshly sliced **green onions** and **sesame seeds** for a little extra crunch and flavor. If you love spice, drizzle with a bit more **Sriracha** or **chili paste**.
