3 tablespoons soy sauce (low sodium if preferred)
1 teaspoon sesame oil
2 green onions, chopped

2. Stir in minced garlic and grated ginger. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
3. Add shredded cabbage and carrots. Stir and cook for 5–7 minutes until veggies soften but retain slight crunch.
4. Pour in soy sauce and sesame oil. Mix well to coat everything evenly. Add crushed red pepper if using. Cook 2 more minutes.
5. Remove from heat, top with chopped green onions, and serve warm.
Notes
For a vegetarian version, replace pork with plant-based crumbles or finely chopped mushrooms.
