Cook the pork: First heat some oil (I like coconut oil) in a wok and add the ground pork. Cook it, stirring often, until no pink remains.
Slice the vegetables: You need to thinly slice the veggies, garlic, and ginger too, so do that while the pork cooks.
Add more ingredients to the wok: The garlic, ginger and shallot go in with the pork. Next you will add the veggies, soy sauce and sesame oil.
Add the egg: Push the other ingredients up the sides of the wok and crack in the egg. You can then scramble it in there, then stir it with the other ingredients. Get everything well mixed together.
Serve: Serve hot with red pepper flakes and green onions.

Substitutions and Variations

Use ground chicken or turkey: A leaner alternative to pork.
Add edamame: A handful of edamame beans is always good in this pork eggroll in a bowl too and they add extra protein.
Add water chestnuts or mushrooms: For extra crunch and umami.
Make it vegetarian: Swap the meat for tofu or edamame.
