Prepare the vegetables by shredding the carrots and cabbage, trimming and thinly slicing the green beans, and rinsing the bean sprouts.
Heat sesame oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat. Add minced garlic and chopped onion, and sautΓ© for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the carrots, cabbage, green beans, and bean sprouts to the skillet. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are slightly tender but still crisp.
Stir in gluten-free soy sauce, salt, and ground black pepper. Mix well and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Remove the skillet from heat and allow the vegetable filling to cool completely.
Lay one gluten-free lumpia wrapper on a flat surface. Place about 2 tablespoons of the cooled vegetable filling in a thin line near the bottom edge of the wrapper.
Fold the bottom edge of the wrapper over the filling, then fold in the sides, and roll tightly toward the top edge. Use a dab of water on the top edge to seal the lumpia. Repeat with the remaining filling and wrappers.
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep skillet or frying pan over medium heat. Once the oil is hot (about 350Β°F/175Β°C), fry the lumpia in batches, being careful not to overcrowd the pan.
Fry each lumpia for 2-4 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crisp on all sides. Remove from the oil and place on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Serve the gluten-free vegetable lumpia warm with a dipping sauce of your choice, such as sweet chili sauce or a soy-based vinegar dip.
