Instructions
- Step 1: In a large bowl, combine 1 pound ground pork, 1 shredded medium carrot, 3 thinly sliced green onions, 4 minced garlic cloves, 2 tbsp soy sauce, and 1/2 tsp ground black pepper. Mix thoroughly until combined.
- Step 2: Lay 1 lumpia wrapper flat on a clean surface. Place 2 tbsp of the pork mixture near one corner. Fold the corner over the filling, then fold the sides inward and roll tightly. Dab 1 tbsp water along the edge to seal. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.
