Ingredients

• 25 pieces Gluten-free lumpia wrappers
• 1 pound Ground pork or chicken
• 1 medium Carrot, finely shredded
• 2 stalks Green onion, finely chopped
• 3 cloves Garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons Gluten-free soy sauce
• 1 large Egg
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 2 cups Canola oil
• 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons Water

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine ground pork or chicken, shredded carrot, chopped green onions, and minced garlic.

Step 2

Add gluten-free soy sauce, egg, salt, and ground black pepper to the meat mixture. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated.

Step 3

In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with water to create a slurry. This will be used as a sealing agent for the wrappers.

Step 4

Prepare a clean, flat working surface. Lay one gluten-free lumpia wrapper flat, with one of the corners pointing towards you.

Step 5

Spoon about 1 to 1.5 tablespoons of the filling mixture onto the center of the wrapper. Shape the filling into a small cylindrical log.

Step 6

Fold the bottom corner of the wrapper over the filling. Roll up the wrapper tightly while tucking in the sides.

Step 7

Brush a small amount of the cornstarch slurry on the top corner of the wrapper to seal the edge and prevent unrolling.

Step 8

Repeat the rolling process with the remaining filling and wrappers.

Step 9

In a large skillet or deep fryer, heat canola oil over medium-high heat until hot.

Step 10

Carefully place lumpia into the hot oil, a few at a time, to avoid overcrowding. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 3 to 4 minutes each side.

Step 11

Remove cooked lumpia from oil and drain on a plate lined with paper towels to remove excess oil.

Step 12

Serve hot with your choice of dipping sauce, such as sweet chili sauce or vinegar with garlic.
