Instructions

1. Step 1: Boil 1/2 lb peeled and deveined shrimp in gently boiling water for 2-3 minutes until pink and opaque. Drain and slice shrimp in half lengthwise.
2. Step 2: Lay one lumpia wrapper flat on a clean surface. Place a small handful of 1 cup torn lettuce leaves, 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, 1/4 cup julienned carrot, 1/4 cup julienned cucumber, and 2 tbsp blanched sliced green beans near the bottom edge. Top with 2 halves of shrimp.
3. Step 3: Roll the wrapper tightly over the filling, folding in the sides as you go to form a neat roll. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.
4. Step 4: For the peanut garlic sauce, heat 1 tbsp vegetable oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add 3 minced garlic cloves and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
5. Step 5: Stir in 1/3 cup crushed roasted peanuts, 2 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp brown sugar, and 1/4 cup water. Simmer for 4-5 minutes until sauce thickens slightly, then stir in 1 tbsp lime juice. Serve sauce warm alongside fresh lumpia rolls.
