Why this works

A protein-rich stir fry with moderate calories, relatively low carbohydrate content and some vegetables, but it is fairly high in fat and sodium due to the pork mince, margarine and soy sauce.

High-quality protein. Eggs and pork mince provide a substantial amount of complete protein, supporting muscle repair and satiety.

Vegetable micronutrients. Red cabbage, carrots, celery and onion add vitamin C, carotenoids, folate and potassium, with red cabbage contributing antioxidant compounds.

Sodium and saturated fat. Soy sauce, added salt, pork mince and margarine can push sodium and saturated fat higher, which may be a concern if eaten often.

Method

Shred the red cabbage and slice the onions, carrots and celery thinly.
Heat the margarine in a large frying pan or wok and cook the pork mince until browned.
Add the vegetables and stir fry for 6-8 minutes until just tender.
Push the mixture to one side and crack in the eggs, scrambling them gently in the pan.
Stir everything together and cook for another minute until the eggs are just set.
Season with soy sauce, salt and black pepper if using, then serve hot.
