Lumpia

Ingredients

• •1 pound ground pork
• •2 cups shredded cabbage
• •1 cup shredded carrots
• •4 cloves garlic, minced
• •2 tablespoons soy sauce
• •1 teaspoon salt
• •1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• •20 sheets lumpia wrappers
• •2 tablespoons cornstarch mixed with water
• •2 cups vegetable oil for frying

Directions

1. 1Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large pan over medium-high heat, then cook minced garlic for 30 seconds until fragrant.
2. 2Add ground pork and cook until browned, breaking it apart as it cooks, about 5-7 minutes.
3. 3Stir in cabbage, carrots, soy sauce, salt, and pepper, then cook for 3-4 minutes until vegetables are slightly softened; let cool completely.
4. 4Place 2 tablespoons filling on each lumpia wrapper near the bottom, fold sides inward, roll tightly, and seal the edge with cornstarch paste.
5. 5Heat 2 cups oil in a deep pan to 350°F and fry lumpia in batches for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy.
6. 6Drain on paper towels and serve hot with sweet and sour sauce or banana ketchup.

💡 Lumpia filling must be cool and fairly dry before wrapping; hot cabbage and pork create steam that weakens the thin wrappers.
