LUMPIA SHANGHAI

Steps:

• Prepare the filling: In a large bowl, combine the carrot, onion, water chestnuts, celery, garlic, 1 whole egg and 1 egg yolk, fish sauce and 1/2 teaspoon salt; mix until well blended. Add the pork, beef, pepper and remaining 2 teaspoons salt. Using your hands, gently mix until everything is evenly distributed, being careful not to overwork or compress the meat mixture.
• Prepare the lumpia: In a small bowl, whisk about 3 tablespoons water into remaining egg white. Working one at a time, place a lumpia wrapper on a work surface with one corner facing you. Add 3 tablespoons of filling in the center of the wrapper and shape it into a 7-inch-long log stretching from the left corner of the wrapper toward the right corner of the wrapper. Brush the outer 1-inch edge of the wrapper with the egg white mixture, then lift the bottom corner of the lumpia wrapper and fold it up and over the filling, making sure there's no air between the filling and the wrapper. Tightly fold the left and right corners of the wrapper toward the center, pulling and folding the corners over the filling. Roll the log away from you toward the top corner, tightly sealing it closed and forming it into a compact roll.
• In a deep pot, add enough oil to reach 3 inches and heat over medium-high until about 350 degrees. Working in batches, add 6 or so lumpia and cook, rotating frequently and separating if needed, until golden brown and cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a large, paper towel-lined baking sheet to cool, then cook the remaining lumpia. (You can also freeze uncooked lumpia until firm on a wax paper-lined baking sheet, wrap them well and keep them frozen for up to 2 weeks. Fry frozen lumpia for 4 to 5 minutes.)
• Serve lumpia whole or halved crosswise, with banana ketchup for dipping. If serving a crowd, you can cook the lumpia an hour or two ahead, let them come to room temperature then reheat them in a 350-degree oven for 10 minutes.

SHANGHAI LUMPIA

Steps:

• 1. In a Large bowl, combine ground pork, and ground beef then add the onions, carrot, ginger, pepper, garlic powder, and salt. Make sure to completely mix everything. I suggest getting down and dirty and use your hands.
• 2. Beat the eggs and soy sauce together then gradually blend into the meat mixture. Knead the meat in the bowl if you must until all ingredients are evenly distributed. Put this into the refrigerator for at least 4 hours to a day to allow the flavors to meld together.
• 3. Lay out 2 or 3 wrappers at a time on a flat surface, and place about 2 tablespoons of the filling in a diagonal line between the corners of the wrapper. Make sure the filling is no thicker than your thumb, or the wrapper will cook faster than the meat.
• 4. Take the corners of the wrapper nearest to the ends of the filling and fold them towards the center.
• 5. Take one of the corners left and fold across the filling towards the center.
• 6. Moisten the last edges of the wrapper to seal and roll up the last corner. Now repeat using the rest of the wrappers, and have hubby or the kids help you out. Any lumpia you don't need to cook at this time can be frozen for later use.
• 7. Heat the oil in a deep-fryer or heavy skillet to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Fry 3 or 4 lumpia at a time. Fry for about 3 or 4 minutes, turning once. Lumpia are cooked through when the wrapper is golden brown.
• 8. Cut in half across the center, or serve as is with dipping sauce. Sauces used are sweet and sour sauce, white vinegar with crushed garlic, soy sauce with lemon, or banana ketchup.

LUMPIA SHANGHAI

Steps:

• Using a small food processor, chop the shrimp to a coarse grind resembling hamburger meat. Remove to a large mixing bowl.
• In the same food processor, chop the garlic as small as possible. Add the green onion and yellow onion and pulse to a similar size as the shrimp. Remove the onion mixture to the mixing bowl with the shrimp. Next pulse the shiitake caps and sliced water chestnuts. Add the pork to the food processor and pulse once more. Add to the mixing bowl.
• Add the fish sauce, soy sauce, brown sugar and white pepper to the mixing bowl. Mix all the ingredients thoroughly, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Carefully peel one lumpia wrapper off the stack. Orient the wrapper square to the edge of the counter, not diagonal. Scoop about 1 heaping tablespoon of the filling (approximately 1 ounce) and spread it about an inch from the edge closest to you and about 1/2 inch from each side. Fold the edge closest to you past the filling, then using the fingertips, pull and concentrate the filling into a tight rope close to you. Next, roll away from you to form a thin eggroll shape, stopping about 1 1/2 inches from the edge. Fold one end inward and using a brush or fork, apply a minimal amount of beaten egg to the edge and folded-in end as glue. Finish rolling to complete the roll. Place the lumpia seam-side down on a plate while the remainder are formed. You should have approximately 30 rolls.
• Heat 1 inch of the frying oil to 340 to 350 degrees F in a large, heavy-bottomed pot. When the oil is at temperature, fry the lumpia in batches until golden brown and cooked through, about 3 minutes. Remove to drain on a wire rack or paper towels.
• Mix the sweet chile sauce and vinegar and serve with the hot rolls. You can adjust the amount of vinegar to taste.

LUMPIA (LUMPIANG SHANGHAI) RECIPE BY TASTY

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!
