To begin with this recipe, we must prepare a few ingredients. You can have lumpia family style using 13 ingredients and 8 steps. Here is how you can achieve it.

The ingredients needed to make Lumpia Family Style:
  1. Take Filling basic:
  2. Make ready 1 lb ground meat (beef, pork or chicken)
  3. Prepare 1 cup julienne green beans
  4. Get 1 cup onion (chopped fine)
  5. Prepare 1 cup carrot (chopped fine or shredded) or 1 cup water chestnuts

  7. Take 1/2 teaspoon salt

  10. Take 1 lb wrapper (8"x 8") Menlo is best. Don't rip any brand
  11. Get 1 egg (beaten for sealing wrapper)

A family friend refined the process and reduced the time, especially if you have many kitchen helpers (think assembly line). Lumpia is a spring roll that is commonly found in the Philippines and other Southeast Asian cuisines. It can either be fried in the oil or steam from the water. It is covered with a plastic-like pastry skin called the Lumpia Wrapper.

Steps to make Lumpia Family Style:
  1. Prepare onion, carrots, etc by chopping fine - thin and small. Try to chop all the same size to cook evenly) In a large bowl mix the filling ingredients. If you want a stronger garlic flavor use minced instead of powdered).
  2. This is a basic mix. Feel free to experiment by adding other things you think may blend well. If you don't like it don't include it in the next batch.
  3. Spread a wrapper, flat on a cutting board. Make a line of filling along one edge of the filling. If you have a forcing bag with a 1/2 inch plain tip, you'll save a lot of time. Otherwise grab a handful of the mix and form it into approx 1/2 inch tube shape 8" long (same as wrapper).
  4. Roll the wrapper tightly around the filling. Stop about an inch short of the end and brush the egg wash along the length of the exposed wrapper remainder. The eggwash will keep the wrapper from coming apart. Then complete the roll.
  5. Cut the tube wrapper in thirds. The ends will have filler exposed which purists may sneer at but that's part of what takes gobs of time which this method eliminates.
  6. At this point you can cover and wait until you need to cook it or proceed directly with cooking. If you have a limited time to cook do the above the night before.
  7. In a medium frying pan, heat oil to approx 375 degrees. Test the oil by dipping a few in and letting them golden. The first few in the oil will help judge if the oil is too hot or cool. Cook the rolled wrappers until the outside is golden brown. There is a myth that the wrapper needs to float to prove it's done. That may be true for bigger lumpia, but not the small lumpia.
  8. One final step before serving, let the cooked lumpia rest for about 10 minutes. This will let the meat relax and juices mingle and reduce burned fingers and tongues. Enjoy. I'd say something about leftovers but this is rarely a concern.

You can find this Lumpia wrapper or Spring roll wrapper in most Filipino and Asian grocery stores. Most of the time, my family enjoys it simply with some rice and an easy cucumber salad. If you want to serve an authentic Filipino meal, you can serve lumpia shanghai rolls as a side dish to go with Filipino Adobo Chicken or Filipino Fried Rice.
