Wash the bean sprouts thoroughly and drain them well.
Peel and julienne the carrot into thin strips.
Trim the ends of the green beans and slice them into 1-inch pieces.
Chop the onion finely and mince the garlic cloves.
Cut the firm tofu into small cubes.
In a large pan over medium heat, heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil.
Add the onion and garlic, and sauté until the onion is translucent.
Add the tofu cubes and cook until lightly browned.
Stir in the carrots and green beans, and cook for 3-4 minutes until they start to soften.
Add the bean sprouts, soy sauce, salt, and black pepper. Stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes until everything is well combined and the bean sprouts slightly wilted.
Remove the vegetable mixture from heat and let it cool for a few minutes.
To assemble the lumpia, lay a spring roll wrapper on a flat surface with one corner pointing towards you, like a diamond.
Place about 2 tablespoons of filling near the bottom corner of the wrapper.
Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides, and roll it up tightly, sealing the top corner with a bit of water.
Repeat the process with the remaining wrappers and filling.
In a deep pan, heat the vegetable oil to about 350°F (175°C).
Fry the lumpiang toge in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan, until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per batch.
Remove the fried spring rolls using a slotted spoon and transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Serve hot with your choice of dipping sauce, such as sweet chili sauce or vinegar with chili, garlic, and salt.
