Instructions
Lumpia Filling
- Prepare all the aromatics and veggies.
- Add the pork, ground meat, aromatics and veggies to a large mixing bowl and mix until well combined. Now add the soy sauce and 1 egg. Again, mix until well combined. Set aside.
Rolling the Lumpia
- Prepare the work surface by placing the wrappers in between a damp kitchen towel, add an egg or water to a small ramekin, use a cutting board for the rolling surface and a lined baking sheet for the finished lumpia.
- Now roll the lumpia, take a wrapper and add tablespoon (TBSP) of the filling and roll tight, sealing with egg or water.
Freezing or Preparing the Lumpia
- Once the lumpia have been rolled, either fry/bake fresh or place in the freezer and once frozen add to a freezer storage bag.
- Serve as a side or enjoy the lumpia on its own with my delicious Vinegar-Soy Dipping Sauce, cheers!
