A long time ago, at my son’s football award banquet, one of the moms brought these delicious lumpias. \u00a0I had never had, nor even heard of them but once I tasted them, I immediately requested the recipe. \u00a0These are filipino lumpias, which are a take on egg rolls. Now since I never actually saw her make them, here is my translation of the recipe she gave me.<\/p>\n

1 pound ground pork
\n<\/span>1\/2 C. finely chopped celery
\n1\/2 C. finely chopped carrot
\n1\/2 C. finely chopped onion
\n3 minced garlic cloves
\n1 egg
\n1\/4 C. soy sauce
\nSalt and pepper
\nEgg roll wrappers (she recommended TYJ spring roll wrappers, found in the freezer section)<\/p>\n

Mix well all of the ingredients (except the wrappers, of course). \u00a0Since the wrappers are rather large, we cut them into fourths. \u00a0On each little square of wrapper, put about a 2-3 teaspoons of the filling near one corner. \u00a0Roll up the corner over the filling, fold the sides in and continue to roll toward the other corner. \u00a0Put a little bit of water on the corner to help seal up the lumpia.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Heat about 3\/4 cup of vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. \u00a0Cook the lumpia in batches in a single layer in the oil until brown on all sides and cooked through, about 5-8 minutes. \u00a0Serve with sweet and sour sauce or sweet chili sauce.<\/p>\n

Makes about 50 or so. \u00a0The uncooked lumpia freeze really well. \u00a0I freeze them on a cookie sheet and when frozen through, I transfer them to a zip-lock bag..<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
