Lumpia
- 1-2 boxes lumpia wrappers, separated
- 1 lb. ground pork
- 1 can water chestnuts, drained
- 1 can bamboo shoots, drained
- 1 can bean sprouts, drained
- 1 can mushrooms (or fresh mushrooms)
- 1 small bag frozen peas and carrots
- soy sauce to taste
- small bowl of water
- frying pan of hot vegetable oil
- Put the ground pork (uncooked) in a very large mixing bowl. Using a food processor, cut up all of the listed vegetables, except frozen peas and carrots, into small bits.
- Mix all of the chopped vegetables into the pork.
- Add soy sauce to taste.
- Last, add the peas and carrots.
- Take one lumpia wrapper, which are very thin, and place mixture in a line about the thickness of your finger to one side of the wrapper, leaving about an inch on both sides to the edge of the wrapper.
- The line of mixture should be not quite two finger lengths long.
- Take the wrapper edge (left and right sides) of the pork line and fold it over to cover the end of the line.
- Do this to both sides.
- Now take the smallest side of the wrapper and cover the mixture tightly, rolling the mixture into the center of the wrapper all the way to the opposite edge.
- Holes in the wrapper are ok.
- Dip your finger tips into the bowl of water and gently rub them over the outer edge of the wrapper to seal the wrapper shut.
- The lumpia should look like a very tall, skinny egg roll.
- Twice as long and half as round. Roll all of the lumpia rolls before proceeding further.
- Uncooked lumpia can be frozen and cooked later.
