Thin, crisp fried spring rolls filled with seasoned minced pork and vegetables, a Filipino party essential served with a sweet dipping sauce.
Tips for the best lumpia
- Roll tightly, since a loose roll lets in oil and turns soggy rather than crisp.
- Fry at a steady 170C, too hot and the wrapper burns before the filling cooks through.
Frequently asked questions
Can I freeze lumpia?
Yes, freeze them uncooked and fry straight from frozen, adding a minute or two to the cooking time.
What is the difference between lumpia and Chinese spring rolls?
They are closely related, but lumpia wrappers are typically thinner, and the filling and dipping sauces lean more Filipino, such as banana ketchup.
