Ingredients

• 1 pound ground pork
• 1 medium, grated carrot
• 3 stalks, finely chopped green onion
• 1 small, finely minced onion
• 3 cloves, finely minced garlic
• 1 large, beaten egg
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 25 sheets lumpia (spring roll) wrappers
• 2 cups (for frying) vegetable oil
• 0.25 cup (for sealing wrappers) water

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground pork, grated carrot, chopped green onion, minced onion, minced garlic, beaten egg, soy sauce, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all the ingredients are thoroughly combined.

Step 2

Place one lumpia wrapper on a clean, flat surface with one corner pointing toward you (like a diamond shape). Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the pork mixture onto the wrapper, arranging it in a thin log shape about 1 inch above the bottom corner.

Step 3

Fold the bottom corner of the wrapper snugly over the filling. Roll the wrapper tightly upward until you reach the middle.

Step 4

Fold in the left and right corners of the wrapper to seal the sides, then continue to roll upward. Brush a small amount of water along the final edge to seal the wrapper completely.

Step 5

Repeat this wrapping process with the remaining filling and lumpia wrappers until all the filling is used.

Step 6

Heat the vegetable oil in a deep frying pan or pot over medium heat. The oil should be hot but not smoking, around 350°F (175°C).

Step 7

Carefully place a few egg rolls into the hot oil, seam side down. Fry in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan.

Step 8

Cook the egg rolls for about 3-4 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crisp on all sides. Use a slotted spoon to remove them from the oil and transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.

Step 9

Repeat the frying process for all the remaining egg rolls.

Step 10

Serve the lumpia hot with sweet chili sauce or your favorite dipping sauce.
