For an extra layer of flavor, marinate the shrimp in a mixture of soy sauce, ginger, and garlic before adding it to the pork mixture. If you prefer a vegetarian option, substitute the pork and shrimp with finely diced tofu and additional vegetables such as cabbage, bean sprouts, and water chestnuts. Lumpia are best served immediately while they are still crispy and hot. However, they can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated in the oven or air fryer. Serve with your favorite sweet and sour dipping sauce, or try a homemade version using vinegar, soy sauce, sugar, and a touch of chili garlic sauce. To freeze, place uncooked lumpia in a single layer on a baking sheet. Once frozen, transfer to a freezer bag. Fry from frozen, adding a few minutes to the cooking time.

Follow The Directions
01
StepIn a mixing bowl, thoroughly combine the ground pork, shrimp, onion, carrots, green onions, soy sauce, MSG, salt, and black pepper. Ensure all ingredients are evenly distributed. (Prep time: 15 minutes)
02
StepKeep the spring roll wrappers covered with a damp cloth to prevent them from drying out. Place one wrapper on a clean work surface. Spoon a thin line of the pork mixture across one side of the wrapper, about 1/2 inch from the edge. (Prep time: 20 minutes)
03
StepTightly roll the wrapper around the filling, ensuring a secure closure. Seal the edges with beaten egg white. Repeat this process until all wrappers and filling are used. (Prep time: 20 minutes)
04
StepHeat the vegetable oil in a deep, heavy pan or a deep fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). (Prep time: 5 minutes)
05
StepCarefully lower the lumpia into the hot oil in batches of 3-4, avoiding overcrowding the pan. Fry the lumpia, turning once, until they float and turn a beautiful golden brown. (Cook time: 3 minutes per batch)
06
StepRemove the fried lumpia from the oil and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil. If desired, cut the rolls into thirds before serving. Repeat with any remaining lumpia.
