Instructions

Step 1: In a large bowl, combine 1 pound ground pork, 1 medium grated carrot, 3 thinly sliced green onions, 3 minced garlic cloves, 2 tbsp soy sauce, 1/2 tsp black pepper, and 1/4 tsp salt. Mix until well combined.
Step 2: Lay one lumpia wrapper flat on a clean surface. Place about 2 tbsp of pork mixture near one corner. Fold the corner over the filling, fold the sides inward, then roll tightly to seal. Dab 1/2 tbsp water along the final edge to secure. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.
Step 3: Heat 1 1/2 cups vegetable oil in a deep skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Fry lumpia rolls in batches, turning occasionally, for 3-4 minutes until evenly golden brown and crisp.
Step 4: Using a slotted spoon, transfer lumpia to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve warm with your choice of dipping sauce.
