Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground pork
- 1 large carrot, finely grated
- 3 stalks green onion, finely chopped
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 25 pieces lumpia or spring roll wrappers
- 4 cups vegetable oil, for frying
- 0.25 cup water, for sealing the wrappers
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine ground pork, grated carrot, chopped green onion, chopped onion, minced garlic, soy sauce, oyster sauce, egg, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
Place one lumpia or spring roll wrapper on a clean work surface. Position the wrapper so that one corner is pointing toward you, resembling a diamond shape.
Spoon about 1 to 1.5 tablespoons of the filling onto the wrapper, near the corner closest to you. Shape the filling into a thin, log-like form.
Fold the corner closest to you tightly over the filling, tucking it underneath. Roll the wrapper once, then fold in the left and right corners toward the center to seal the sides.
Continue rolling tightly toward the far corner, ensuring the lumpia is compact. Dab a small amount of water on the final corner to seal the edges.
Repeat the wrapping process with the remaining filling and wrappers, placing the completed lumpia on a plate or tray and covering with a clean towel to prevent drying out.
In a large, deep skillet or saucepan, heat vegetable oil over medium heat to approximately 350°F (175°C). Ensure the oil is deep enough to fully submerge the lumpia.
Fry the lumpia in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes, turning occasionally, until the wrappers are golden brown and crisp.
Remove the fried lumpia from the oil and place on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Serve the lumpia hot with a side of sweet chili sauce or vinegar dipping sauce. Enjoy!
