Experience the irresistible crunch of **Gluten-Free Lumpiang Toge**, a healthier twist on the classic Filipino spring roll that's perfect for those avoiding gluten. Each roll is packed with vibrant, stir-fried vegetables—like bean sprouts, cabbage, and julienned carrots—masterfully seasoned with fish sauce, garlic, and a hint of black pepper for an umami-rich filling. Crumbled tofu adds a delightful texture and extra protein, while crisp gluten-free wrappers deliver that signature golden crunch when fried to perfection. These light yet flavorful spring rolls come together in just 40 minutes and pair beautifully with a tangy dipping sauce of soy sauce, vinegar, and chili. Perfect as a snack, appetizer, or light meal, this recipe proves that going gluten-free doesn't mean compromising on taste or tradition.
Start by preparing the vegetables: peel and finely dice the garlic and onion, julienne the carrot, cut the green beans into small pieces, and shred the cabbage.
Heat 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large pan over medium heat. Sauté the garlic and onion until they become fragrant and translucent.
Add the julienned carrots, green beans, and cabbage to the pan. Stir fry for about 3 minutes or until they slightly soften.
Crumble the block of tofu into the pan and mix well with the vegetables.
Add the bean sprouts and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes.
Season the mixture with fish sauce, ground black pepper, and salt. Stir well and cook for another minute. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Take a gluten-free spring roll wrapper and place it on a flat surface. Place about 2 tablespoons of the vegetable mixture near one corner of the wrapper.
Fold the corner over the filling, then fold both sides towards the center and continue to roll up tightly. Seal the edge with a little water.
Repeat the process for all the wrappers and filling.
In a deep frying pan, heat the 1 cup of vegetable oil over medium-high heat.
Carefully fry the lumpiang toge in batches until golden brown and crispy. This usually takes about 2 to 3 minutes per side.
Drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
Serve hot and enjoy with a dipping sauce of your choice, such as soy sauce with vinegar and chili.
