Heat 2 tablespoons of cooking oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat.
SautΓ© the minced garlic and chopped onion until fragrant and translucent, about 2 minutes.
Add the julienned carrots, shredded cabbage, green beans, and bean sprouts to the skillet.
Stir-fry the vegetables for 4-5 minutes or until tender but still crisp.
Season the vegetables with 2 tablespoons of soy sauce and stir well to combine. Remove the skillet from heat and allow the vegetable mixture to cool slightly.
Lay one lumpia wrapper or thin crepe on a clean, flat surface. Place a piece of lettuce on the center of the wrapper.
Add 2-3 tablespoons of the vegetable filling on top of the lettuce.
Roll the wrapper tightly around the filling, folding in the sides as you go, to create a neat cylindrical shape. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
Prepare the sauce by combining 1 cup of water and 1 cup of brown sugar in a small saucepan. Heat over medium heat, stirring to dissolve the sugar.
Add 2 tablespoons of soy sauce and the 2 minced garlic cloves to the saucepan. Stir and bring the mixture to a gentle boil.
In a small bowl, dissolve 1 tablespoon of cornstarch in 1/2 cup of water to create a slurry.
Slowly pour the slurry into the sauce, stirring constantly to thicken the mixture. Cook for another 1-2 minutes, then remove from heat.
Serve the fresh vegetable lumpia with the warm garlic sauce on the side for dipping.
