How to Make Lumpia In Spring Roll Wrappers

  1. Prepare the Lumpia Filling: In a large bowl, combine the ground pork, finely chopped onion, garlic, carrots, and potatoes. Add soy sauce, fish sauce, black pepper, and salt. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
  2. Sauté the Filling: Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the lumpia filling and cook until the pork is browned and the vegetables are tender, about 8-10 minutes, breaking up any large clumps. Allow to cool completely.
  3. Assemble the Lumpia: Lay a spring roll wrapper flat on a clean surface. Place about 1-2 tablespoons of the cooled lumpia filling in the center of the wrapper. Fold the bottom edge over the filling, then fold in the sides, and tightly roll up towards the top edge. Moisten the top edge with a little water to seal.
  4. Fry the Lumpia: Heat about 1 inch of cooking oil in a deep skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot (a small piece of wrapper should sizzle immediately), carefully add the lumpia rolls in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side.
  5. Drain and Serve: Remove the lumpia with a slotted spoon and place them on a wire rack or paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce (sweet chili sauce is recommended!).
