INGREDIENT NOTES:

SHRIMP:

• The delicate flavor and lean protein of shrimp go well with the strong flavors of Asian influences. They keep the dish light but filling because they cook rapidly and absorb sauces effectively.

OLIVE OIL:

• Olive oil helps the shrimp sear beautifully and gives healthy fats that fit into a ketogenic diet. These oils make everything rich and moist while enhancing flavor.

ONIONS:

• The onion gives the dish’s foundation depth and sweetness. It balances the savory tastes of sesame and coconut aminos and goes well with the shrimp.

CABBAGE:

• Green cabbage adds the traditional crunch of an egg roll without the wrapping. It absorbs all the flavors and has high fiber content and few carbohydrates.

GARLIC:

• The savory bite and aroma of garlic define the flavor of the egg roll. Use freshly minced garlic for a strong, crisp flavor.

GINGER:

• Shrimp and coconut aminos go well with the warmth and spiciness that fresh ginger brings. Additionally, it improves the overall flavor profile and facilitates digestion.

COCONUT AMINOS:

• Coconut aminos provide saltiness and umami depth. A fantastic gluten-free & marginally sweeter ketogenic alternative is tamari.

SESAME OIL:

• Sesame oil provides the nutty flavor and aroma in the dish. Everything comes together flawlessly with a little rain.

RED PEPPER FLAKES:

• Red flakes provide an optional spicy kick and mild heat. Add the flakes according to the tolerance level of spice.

GREEN ONIONS:

• Green onions add crunch and freshness to the dish’s finale. They delightfully balance the flavorful prawns and add color.

SESAME SEEDS:

• It provides a light flavor of nuts & a pleasant toasted texture. They also give the finished meal more visual appeal.
