Egg Roll Ramen Stir Fry {Gluten Free}
This post contains affiliate links.
This egg roll ramen stir fry marries everything you love about both egg rolls and ramen in one dish! This version is gluten-free and comes together in 30 minutes.
Egg roll in a bowl is one of my favorite recipes and a reader favorite here on Unbound Wellness! It’s essentially egg roll filling in a stir fry, without the wrapper. Recently I was making this dish and realized how yummy it would be with noodles as a stir fry… so we’re doing it! It may not be as low carb as the original egg roll in a bowl, but it’s flavor-packed, filling, and easy to make.
Why you’ll love this egg roll ramen stir fry
- It’s nostalgic! It tastes just like an egg roll, but without the wrapper.
- It’s super easy to make. No fancy steps, just boiling ramen and simple stir fry. It can easily be ready in under 30 minutes.
The Ingredients for the Egg Roll Ramen Stir Fry
- Ground Chicken or Ground Pork. You can easily use ground pork or chicken depending on your tastes.
- Shredded Cabbage & Carrots. You can prep these by themselves or easily buy coleslaw mix for a shortcut.
- Rice Ramen. I use this rice ramen! I get it at Whole Foods, Sprouts, or Natural Grocers.
- Onion, Garlic, Ginger and Green Onion.
- Coconut Aminos & Rice Vinegar.
- Spicy Mayo. This is an optional topping. I skip it, but I add it for my husband who loves it!
How to make Egg Roll Ramen Stir Fry
- Brown the pork and set aside.
- Saute the onion, garlic, ginger, and coleslaw mix.
- Cook the ramen noodles.
- Add the cooked pork back to the skillet with the vegetables along with the cooked noodles. Add the broth, coconut aminos, and rice vinegar and saute.
- Make the spicy mayo.
- Top with green onion and optional sauce.
Tips & Tricks
- Take a shortcut with coleslaw mix. I often chop my own cabbage to make this dish, but if you want a shortcut, just use coleslaw mix! It makes the recipe go so much faster.
- Add more veggies. You can also add mushrooms, broccoli, or bok choy if you want more veggies in this dish.
Storage and reheating instructions
You can store this recipe with the sauce on the side in the fridge for 3-4 days. Reheat on the stovetop and add a tablespoon of broth if needed.
How to make this recipe AIP
- Swap out the noodles. You can either use cassava noodles or sweet potato glass noodles.
- Use a different sauce. The sauce is optional, but you can also use the creamy ginger sauce which is written out in the recipe!

We really enjoyed this. Made a nice batch, had leftovers for lunch. Flavors are great. Our teenage son really loved it.
Yay, so glad!!
Can you use rice vinegar for AIP? If not, what do I use?
Rice vinegar is not AIP. I usually use apple cider vinegar for rice vinegar. For this recipe, see notes below the recipe for making an AIP sauce.
This meal was absolutely amazing!! It was a hit with everyone in my family.
I can’t wait to make this meal again! Thank you so much for sharing this recipe.
Thank you so much!!
This recipe was delicious! Even my skeptical family enjoyed it. I went with the first sauce and it was great. I would also like to try the AIP sauce. I think it would have been good without the sauce too but with the sauce? Extra YUM!!! Thanks for another great recipe!
If I’m using alternative noodles, how many ounces of noodles should I use?
5 OZ!
