Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Lean ground chicken
- 1 medium, finely shredded Carrot
- 1 cup, finely shredded Cabbage
- 1 small, finely chopped Onion
- 2 cloves, minced Garlic
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 20 pieces Lumpia wrappers
- 1 beaten (for sealing wrappers) Egg
- (for spraying) Cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F).
In a large bowl, combine ground chicken, shredded carrot, shredded cabbage, onion, garlic, soy sauce, black pepper, and salt. Mix until all ingredients are well incorporated.
Take one lumpia wrapper and place it on a flat surface. Position it like a diamond, so a point is towards you.
Spoon about 1 1/2 tablespoons of the filling mixture near the point of the wrapper that is closest to you. Shape the filling into a small log.
Fold the bottom point of the wrapper over the filling, roll tightly halfway through, then fold in the sides towards the center.
Continue rolling to enclose the filling. Brush the top edge with beaten egg, then press to seal. Repeat this process with the remaining wrappers and filling.
Place the lumpia on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Lightly spray the top of each roll with cooking spray to help it crisp up during baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the lumpia are golden brown and cooked through.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
Serve with your favorite dipping sauce, such as sweet chili sauce or vinegar with garlic.
