Finely chop the green onions, garlic, celery, and cabbage.
In a large mixing bowl, combine ground pork, chopped vegetables, soy sauce, fish sauce, black pepper, and the egg.
Mix the ingredients thoroughly until well combined.
Lay out a low-carb wrapper on a clean surface with one corner pointing toward you.
Place about 2 tablespoons of the pork mixture near the bottom corner of the wrapper, shaping the filling into a log.
Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold over the left and right corners to enclose the filling.
Roll the wrapper up tightly and seal the edge with a dab of water or egg wash.
Repeat the filling and rolling process with the remaining wrappers and pork mixture.
Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium heat.
Once the oil is hot, place the lumpia seam side down in the pan, ensuring not to overcrowd.
Fry the lumpia for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and the filling is cooked through.
Remove from heat and drain excess oil on paper towels.
Serve warm with your choice of dipping sauce.
