Instructions

Step 1: In a large bowl, combine 1 lb ground pork, 4 minced garlic cloves, 3 finely chopped green onions, 1 grated medium carrot, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, and 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper. Mix well until evenly combined.
Step 2: Lay one spring roll wrapper on a flat surface with a corner facing you. Place about 2 tablespoons of the pork mixture near the corner closest to you. Roll tightly halfway, fold the sides inward, then continue rolling to the top corner. Moisten the top corner with a little bit of 1/4 cup water to seal.
Step 3: Repeat the wrapping process with the remaining filling and wrappers.
Step 4: Heat 2 cups vegetable oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering (about 350°F). Fry the lumpia in batches, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per batch.
Step 5: Drain on paper towels and serve hot with a dipping sauce of your choice.
