Key Ingredients
Ground Beef.
I prefer using 80/20 for extra flavor and juiciness. It forms the hearty base of the filling and keeps everything satisfying and rich.
Shredded Cabbage.
Fresh cabbage gives that authentic egg roll texture. It softens while cooking but still adds a slight crunch.
Green Onions.
They add freshness and a mild bite. I like sprinkling extra on top for color and flavor.
Garlic.
Fresh minced garlic gives bold aroma and depth. It makes the filling taste just like classic takeout.
Soy Sauce or Coconut Aminos.
Adds savory umami flavor. Coconut aminos are a great slightly sweeter keto-friendly option.
Keto Wraps (Low-Carb Tortillas or Egg-Based Wraps).
These replace traditional egg roll wrappers. Choose sturdy, low-net-carb versions that crisp well in a pan.
Sesame Oil.
Just a small drizzle adds authentic Asian-inspired flavor and aroma.
How to Make This Recipe
I’ve included everything below to make this recipe easy to follow at home. For the full printable recipe instructions and ingredient quantities, scroll to the Recipe card at the bottom of this post.
- Cook the Ground Beef.
Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add ground beef and cook until browned and no longer pink, breaking it apart as it cooks. - Add Aromatics.
Stir in garlic and cook briefly until fragrant. You’ll smell that rich savory aroma develop. - Add Cabbage & Seasoning.
Mix in shredded cabbage, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Cook until cabbage softens but still has slight texture. - Assemble the Wraps.
Spoon filling onto keto wraps, fold tightly like a burrito, tucking in the sides securely. - Pan-Sear Until Crispy.
Place seam-side down in a lightly oiled skillet over medium heat. Cook until golden brown on both sides. - Cool Slightly & Serve.
Let them rest for a couple of minutes so the filling sets, then slice and enjoy.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Overfilling the wraps, which makes them hard to seal
- Cooking on too high heat, causing burning before crisping
- Not draining excess fat from beef
- Skipping the seam-side-down step first
Required Equipment
- Non-stick skillet — prevents sticking and ensures even browning
- Spatula — helps flip wraps gently without tearing
- Sharp knife — for clean slicing
- Mixing spoon — evenly distributes seasoning
Caleb’s Recipe Tips
- Let the filling cool slightly before wrapping. If it’s too hot, it can soften the keto wraps and make them tear—trust me, I’ve learned this the hard way!
- Don’t skip draining excess grease from the beef. Too much moisture keeps the wraps from crisping properly.
- Press gently with a spatula while searing. This helps the surface brown evenly and creates that classic crispy texture.
- If your wraps aren’t crisping enough, add a tiny bit more oil and increase heat slightly—but watch carefully to avoid burning.
- Want extra flavor? Add a pinch of ground ginger or chili flakes to the filling for a subtle kick.
Storage Instructions
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
For freezing, wrap each cooled egg roll tightly in parchment paper and place in a freezer-safe bag. Freeze for up to 2 months.
Reheat in a skillet or air fryer to restore crispness. Avoid microwaving if possible, as it softens the wrapper.
