Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Ground pork
- 1 large, finely grated Carrot
- 150 grams, finely shredded Cabbage
- 1 medium, finely chopped Onion
- 3 cloves, minced Garlic
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Oyster sauce
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 25 pieces Spring roll wrappers
- 1 large, beaten Egg
- 500 milliliters, for frying Vegetable oil
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine ground pork, grated carrot, shredded cabbage, chopped onion, minced garlic, soy sauce, oyster sauce, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated.
Prepare a clean work surface for assembling the lumpia. Place one spring roll wrapper on the surface in a diamond orientation (point facing up).
Spoon about 1 to 2 tablespoons of the filling onto the wrapper, near the bottom edge closest to you. Shape the filling into a small log about 2 inches long, leaving a gap from the edges of the wrapper.
Fold the bottom corner of the wrapper over the filling and tuck it snugly. Fold in the left and right corners toward the center to seal the edges, then roll the wrapper tightly upwards, leaving the top corner exposed.
Brush the exposed top corner with a bit of beaten egg to help seal the roll. Finish rolling it completely and press lightly to seal. Repeat with the remaining filling and wrappers.
In a deep skillet or frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat until it reaches 175°C (350°F). You can test the oil by dipping the tip of a wooden spoon into the oil; if bubbles form quickly around it, the oil is ready.
Carefully place a few lumpia into the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for 3 to 4 minutes, turning occasionally, until the wrappers are golden brown and crispy.
Use a slotted spoon to remove the lumpia and drain them on a plate lined with paper towels to remove excess oil.
Let the lumpia cool for a few minutes before serving. Serve hot with sweet chili sauce or vinegar dipping sauce.
