HERE IS HOW TO MAKE QUICK & EASY PORK LUMPIA:
WHERE CAN I FIND THESE INGREDIENTS?
You can find the ingredients to make these lumpias from the grocery store! You can get the ground pork from the meat section, the egg roll/lumpia wrappers from the frozen section, the eggs from the dairy section, the carrot from the product section, and the chicken bouillion and seasoning salt from the pantry section!
I believe every country pretty much has its own way of making fried spring rolls so all of the ingredients should be easily available!
WHAT ARE THE INGREDIENTS?
The ingredients to make this delicious lumpia are:
- Spring Roll Wrappers
- Ground Pork
- Shredded Carrots
- Eggs
- Seasoning Salt
- Chicken Bouillon Powder
- Grated Onion/Garlic (Optional)
- Extra Ground Black Pepper (Optional)
WHAT EQUIPMENT DO I NEED?
The equipment you need for this recipe is basically just a bowl and a plate to make the lumpia! Other than that, a shallow frying pan to fry them up, or you can also use an air fryer.
CAN I SUBSTITUTE/ADD ANYTHING OUT?
You sure can! I generally only use this recipe as it is foolproof and everyone goes wild for them but you are welcome to swap out the meat for ground beef, chicken, or turkey and also add in any other veggies or other fillings you’d like!
Vietnamese egg rolls often include vermicelli, shrimp, and dried black fungus which I also love! You can really add in what you’d like or leave it as it is! It’s an awesome recipe!
WHAT DOES QUICK & EASY PORK LUMPIA TASTE LIKE?
Honestly, lumpia tastes like a deep-fried, meat-filled snack! You get the crunchiness from the fried golden spring roll and the meaty filling which each bite. Perfect to dip in sweet Thai chili, vinegar, or ketchup sauces and they are super addicting! Just like chips, you can’t have just one!
HOW LONG DOES IT KEEP FOR?
I usually make a huge batch and store them in the freezer to enjoy for the month, frying only when I want to eat them so they are crunchy and fresh however if you want to sort of meal prep this and cook ahead, you definitely can but to keep the crispiness, be sure to heat them up in the air fryer prior to eating!
If you store these in the fridge, they will get soggy and the wrapper won’t be crunchy. If you can help it, I recommend frying fresh and storing the uncooked lumpia in the freezer for up to 1 month.
INSPIRATIONS FOR THIS RECIPE?
Actually, this recipe is passed down from me from my mama! My mom is a wonderful cook and I always enjoy her cooking. When I moved out of the house and into a home with my boyfriend at the time/husband now, I asked her to tell me how she makes her lumpia and she taught me what she does! It’s pretty much the exact same way and I’ve made it for many people at many events and it’s always a hit.
My husband loves lumpia and requests it often!
ANY OTHER NOTES?
No other notes for this one! It gets super tiring wrapping lumpia so if you have someone that can help you, that would be great! You end up wrapping so many for a long period of time for it to be gone within the hour đ
Quick & Easy Pork Lumpia
Ingredients
- 50 Spring Roll Wrappers
- 500 g Ground Pork
- 2 Large Eggs
- 1/2 Cup Shredded Carrots
- 1/2 Tsp Seasoning Salt (add more to taste)
- 1/2 Tsp Knorr Chicken Bouillon
- Grated Onio/Garlic optional
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, add in your ground pork, 1 egg, shredded carrots, seasoning salt, and chicken bouillon. Mix together until everything is well combined.
- Once the filling is well combined, set aside. Next, grab a small bowl and crack the other egg and whisk with a fork until the egg yolk and white is fully mixed together.
- Grab a plate and place one spring roll wrapper so it looks like a diamond towards you then at the bottom, scoop one tbsp of the lumpia filling about 1/4 of the wrapper down and shape it to be about 2 inches long. See photo!
- Take the bottom edge and roll the filling in then fold in the sides of the wrapper and continue rolling up. Once you get about 1/4 to the top edge, place some of your whisked egg to act as a seal for the lumpia.
- Once all rolled, heat a shallow frying pan medium heat with about half an inch of oil and fry the lumpia, flipping every few minutes until all sides are golden brown.
- Serve with sauce of your choice and enjoy!
