Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the chopped onions and minced garlic to the skillet. Sauté until the onions are translucent and the garlic is fragrant.
Add the julienned carrots and cook for 3 minutes until slightly tender.
Stir in the shredded cabbage and cook for another 2 minutes, then add the bean sprouts.
Add the crumbled firm tofu to the vegetable mixture, stirring gently to combine.
Pour in the soy sauce and sprinkle with black pepper. Stir well and cook for another 2 minutes. Remove the mixture from heat and let it cool slightly.
Lay a spring roll wrapper on a flat surface. Place about 2 tablespoons of the vegetable mixture near one corner of the wrapper.
Fold the corner over the filling, tuck in the sides, and roll tightly. Dab the edge with water to seal the spring roll. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.
Heat 2 cups of vegetable oil in a deep pan over medium-high heat.
Fry the lumpiang toge in batches until they are golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
Serve hot with your choice of dipping sauce.
