Instructions
Cook the meat
In a large skillet, cook the ground meat over medium heat until browned. Drain excess fat.
Add vegetables
Stir in cabbage, carrots, green onions, garlic, and ginger. Cook for 3–4 minutes until slightly softened.

Roll them up
Fold the bottom corner over filling, fold in the sides, and roll tightly. Brush the top corner with beaten egg to seal.
