Lumpia

So I dont know how traditional my lumpia recipe is, but it sure tastes great!

1 cup chopped onion
1 can of french cut green beans unsalted, drained, and pat as dry as possible
1 cup carrots
1 cup cabbage
3 cloves garlic
pepper to taste
1 tbpsn soy sauce
1 cup water

Sautee the onions and pepper with the soy sauce. Once tender, drain the oil and add water to boil. Then add the carrots, and cover for 5 min. Add green beans and cabbage and simmer for 5 min,
Let cool...
Once cool take egg roll wrappers (usually sold in batches of 12) and load with the veggies, being sure not to overfill - usually leave about an inch at each end. Tuck in the ends, moisten with water to seal the edges.

Add 1/2 inch depth of veggie oil to your pan and heat for about 5 min. Then place in rolls and fry until brown - rotate so each side is browned. Drain all the oil. Pat off oil with paper towels and let cool. Then say Yum!

  1. I make something really similar, but instead of frying, I give them a quick spray with olive oil and then into the oven for 5-10 turn them over and do it again. Same effect, not as much oil :)
