LUMPIA



Lumpia image

Lumpia is the Phillipino version of a Chinese egg roll. The skins used, though, are light and flaky instead of doughy. They are similar to a Vietnamese spring roll but more loaded with meat, and very skinny. They are addicting and easy to eat; you can make a bunch ahead and freeze them either before or after frying.

Time 1h25m

Yield 30 rolls

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 cloves garlic, crushed or pressed
2 stalks green onion, finely chopped
1/4 large yellow onion, finely chopped
3 ounces shiitake mushroom caps, finely chopped (about 4 caps, stems removed)
4 ounces sliced water chestnuts, finely chopped
1 pound (26- to 30-count) shrimp, peeled and deveined
1/2 pound ground pork
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon Thai fish sauce or patis
1 teaspoon brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground pepper (white or black)
2 quarts neutral frying oil
30 lumpia or spring roll pastry wrappers, thawed
1 large egg, beaten
1/4 cup sweet chile sauce
1 tablespoon cane or distilled white vinegar, or more to taste

Steps:

  • In a food processor, chop the garlic as small as possible. Add the green onion and yellow onion and pulse to a similar size as the garlic. Add and pulse the shiitake mushroom caps and water chestnuts until all are a similar size. Add the shrimp and pulse until the shrimp are a coarse hamburger grind. Add the ground pork, soy sauce, fish sauce, brown sugar and pepper and mix all thoroughly. Transfer to a bowl, then cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat 1 inch frying oil to 350 to 360 degrees F in a heavy-bottomed pot.
  • Carefully peel one wrapper off the stack. Orient the wrapper square to the edge of the counter, not diagonal. Scoop about a heaping tablespoon (approximately 1 ounce) of the filling and spread it about an inch from the edge closest to you and about 1/2 inch from each side. Brush all of the edges with the egg wash. Fold the edges in on the sides and begin rolling the bottom of the wrapper to the top, making a tight rope. Make sure when you finish rolling that the egg wash has sealed the roll. Place the lumpia seam-side down on a plate while you make the remaining lumpia. (This amount of filling should make approximately 30 rolls. (These could be made smaller for appetizers.)
  • Fry in batches until golden brown and cooked through, about 3 minutes. Remove to drain on a rack or paper towels. Serve hot with sweet chile sauce mixed with vinegar to taste.

FILIPINO LUMPIA



Filipino Lumpia image

My stepmother is Filipino. I would watch her make these on special occasions. She never measured what she did, but I think I've got the knack of it. This is one of the best Filipino foods next to pancit - and unfortunately, I don't know how to make that!! You can find lumpia wrappers in Asian food stores wherever they keep their frozen food, and also (if you're lucky) in very large supermarkets.

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     Asian     Filipino

Time 1h10m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (12 ounce) package lumpia wrappers
1 pound ground beef
½ pound ground pork
⅓ cup finely chopped onion
⅓ cup finely chopped green bell pepper
⅓ cup finely chopped carrot
1 quart oil for frying

Steps:

  • Make sure the lumpia wrappers are completely thawed. Lay several out on a clean dry surface and cover with a damp towel. The wrappers are very thin and the edges will dry out quickly.
  • In a medium bowl, blend together the ground beef and pork, onion, green pepper and carrot. Place about 2 tablespoons of the meat mixture along the center of the wrapper. The filling should be no bigger around than your thumb or the wrapper will burn before the meat is cooked. Fold one edge of the wrapper over to the other. Fold the outer edges in slightly, then continue to roll into a cylinder. Wet your finger, and moisten the edge to seal. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling, keeping finished lumpias covered to prevent drying. This is a good time to recruit a friend or loved one to make the job less repetitive!!
  • Heat oil in a 9 inch skillet at medium to medium high heat until oil is 365 to 375 degrees F (170 to 175 degrees C) Fry 3-4 lumpia at a time. It should only take about 2-3 minutes for each side. The lumpia will be nicely browned when done. Drain on paper towels.
  • You can cut each lumpia into thirds for parties, if you like. In the Philippines, lumpia was eaten with banana ketchup, but I've never seen it sold in America.

Categories     Snacks

Time 1h30m

Yield 50 Lumpias

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 small carrots, peeled and cut into 1-inch (2.54 cm) pieces
1 small sweet onion, quartered
1 water chestnut
1 lb ground pork
3 green onions, thinly sliced
6 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon Maggi seasoning
1 teaspoon sugar
1 ½ teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1 package Filipino lumpia wrappers, thawed (preferably Pamana or Tropics brand)
2 tablespoons all purpose flour
2 tablespoons water
canola oil, for frying
Banana ketchup, sweet chili sauce, or sweet and sour sauce, for serving

Steps:

  • Add the carrots, onion, and water chestnuts to the bowl of a food processor. Pulse until the vegetables are finely chopped, but not ground into a paste.
  • Transfer the vegetables to a large bowl with the ground pork, green onions, garlic, soy sauce, Knorr seasoning, sugar, black pepper, and egg. Stir with a fork until well combined; do not overmix. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour.
  • Gently separate the lumpia wrappers from one another and cover with a damp towel to prevent them from drying out.
  • Add the flour and water to a small bowl and whisk to combine, making sure there are no lumps.
  • Assemble the lumpia: Scoop 5 tablespoons (52 grams) of the filling onto the center of a lumpia wrapper and shape into a horizontal line, all the way across the wrapper. Fold the bottom of the wrapper over the filling and start to roll tightly. Brush the flour paste on the top edge of the wrapper, then continue rolling to seal. Transfer to a baking sheet and repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
  • Cut each lumpia crosswise into 4 equal pieces.
  • If desired, arrange the lumpia in a single layer on a baking sheet, making sure they are not touching each other. Freeze until solid, 2-3 hours, then transfer to an airtight container. The lumpia will keep in the freezer for 3-4 weeks.
  • When ready to fry, pour 1 inch of canola oil into a large pot and heat over medium heat until the temperature reaches 375°F (190°C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with paper towels and set a wire rack on top.
  • Working in batches to avoid overcrowding the pot, add the lumpia to the hot oil and fry for 5-7 minutes, until golden brown. Transfer to the wire rack to drain and repeat with the remaining lumpia, allowing the oil to return to temperature between batches.
  • Serve the lumpia with your favorite sauce for dipping.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Prep your ingredients: Chop and measure all your ingredients before you start cooking to make the process smoother and quicker.
  • Use fresh ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will greatly impact the taste of your lumpia. Use fresh vegetables, herbs, and meat for the best results.
  • Don't overfill the lumpia wrappers: Too much filling will make it difficult to roll and seal the lumpia properly. Aim for about 1 tablespoon of filling per wrapper.
  • Seal the lumpia tightly: Make sure to seal the lumpia tightly so that they don't come apart during frying. You can use a toothpick or a fork to press the edges of the wrapper together.
  • Fry the lumpia in hot oil: The oil should be hot enough to sizzle when you drop the lumpia in. This will help to create a crispy outer layer.
  • Drain the lumpia on paper towels: After frying, drain the lumpia on paper towels to remove any excess oil. This will help to keep them crispy.

Conclusion:

Lumpia are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as an appetizer, main course, or snack. With so many different variations to choose from, there's sure to be a lumpia recipe that everyone will enjoy. So next time you're looking for a new and exciting dish to try, give lumpia a try.
