Shred the cabbage finely and grate the carrot. Chop the green onions into small bits and mince the garlic and ginger.
In a large pan over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Once heated, add the garlic and ginger, sautรฉ for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the ground pork to the pan. Cook for about 5-7 minutes or until pork is browned and cooked through, breaking it into small pieces with a spatula.
Add cabbage, carrot, and green onions to the pork. Stir well to combine and cook for another 3-5 minutes until the vegetables are softened.
Stir in the soy sauce, sesame oil, fish sauce, and cracked black pepper. Cook for another 2 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Remove from heat and let the filling cool slightly.
Prepare your rice paper alternatives according to package instructions, as they may vary.
Place about 2 tablespoons of filling across the center of the prepared rice paper alternative, leaving space on the edges to fold. Fold the sides over the filling, then roll tightly to form a spring roll.
Repeat the process with the remaining filling and wrappers.
Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Carefully place the spring rolls in the pan, seam side down, and cook in batches if necessary.
Cook the rolls for about 2-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy all over. Transfer them to a cooling rack to drain any excess oil.
Serve the crispy pork spring rolls warm with your favorite low-carb dipping sauce.
