Instructions

1. Step 1: Heat 1 tbsp vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add 3 minced garlic cloves and 1 medium chopped onion, sauté for 2-3 minutes until fragrant and translucent.
2. Step 2: Add 1 lb ground pork, cooking for 5-7 minutes until browned and cooked through. Stir in 1/2 cup finely shredded carrot, 1/2 cup chopped green beans, 2 tbsp soy sauce, and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Cook for another 3 minutes until vegetables soften. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
3. Step 3: Place 1 spring roll wrapper on a flat surface with a corner facing you. Spoon about 2 tbsp of the pork mixture near the corner closest to you. Fold that corner over the filling, fold in the sides, then roll tightly to seal. Dab 1 tbsp water along the edge to seal the wrapper. Repeat for remaining wrappers.
4. Step 4: Arrange the lumpia in a steamer basket lined with parchment paper to prevent sticking. Steam over boiling water for 10-12 minutes until wrappers are tender and filling is hot.
5. Step 5: Serve warm with the prepared vinegar dipping sauce made of 1/4 cup vinegar mixed with 1 tsp sugar and chili flakes.
