Start the rice.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over high. Add the ground pork and press it flat, letting it brown undisturbed for 3 minutes before breaking it up.
Cook until no pink remains, about 5 minutes total, then add the minced garlic and grated ginger for 30 seconds.
Add half a head of cabbage, shredded, and stir-fry 5 minutes until wilted but still with some bite.
Pour in the soy sauce, vinegar, and sesame oil and toss to coat.
Serve over the rice, scattered with sliced scallions.
