This is a delightful Filipino favorite. Caramelized onion adds sweetness, and peanuts add crunch to the lumpia filling. Serve with my recipe for fresh lumpia sauce (see Footnote).

Yield 30

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, crushed
3 (6 ounce) lean pork tenderloins, sliced into small pieces
4 cups uncooked medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
½ small jicama (singkamas or yambean), peeled and cut into matchsticks
1 ½ cups bean sprouts
⅔ cup chickpeas, drained
1 cup fresh green beans, trimmed
2 stalks celery, diced
1 large carrot, minced
1 cup crushed salted peanuts
1 cup crushed salted peanuts, or to taste
1 head green leafy lettuce, or to taste
1 (16 ounce) package lumpia wrappers

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic; saute until onion is softened and browned, 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer onion and garlic to a plate.
  • Cook pork and shrimp in the same skillet until browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Add back the onion and garlic; season with salt and pepper. Add jicama, bean sprouts, chickpeas, green beans, celery, and carrot. Cook and stir until vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Place filling mixture in a large bowl. Add peanuts and mix well.

These lumpia were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more spices next time.

The lumpia were delicious, but they were a bit difficult to roll. I think I need more practice.

These lumpia were a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I'll try baking them next time.

I'm not a huge fan of lumpia, but these were actually really good. The filling was flavorful and the wrapper was crispy.

These lumpia are a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I especially like adding cabbage and carrots.
