Beef and Vegetable Lumpia

Variety of Lumpia is available depending on what type you want to eat. My first post about lumpia is Lumpiang Sariwa. This time, I want to share with you this Beef and Vegetable Lumpia recipe.

Unlike Lumpiang Shanghai, this kind of Lumpia requires pre-cooking the mixture before wrapping and frying.

My version of Beef and Vegetable Lumpia


Ingredients:

- 200 grams minced beef
- 1 medium carrot
- 1 small potato
- ¼ cut of cabbage
- garlic
- 1 medium sized onion
- Fish sauce and pepper to taste
- Cooking oil
- Spring Roll wrappers

You will need:

- deep fryer



- lumpia wrapper cut diagonally




- Mama Sitas Sweet and Sour Mix

Procedure:
Filling
- Make sure that all the vegetables are cut and chopped finely (use food grinder if available for better result)
- Heat a pan and put 3 tbsp of cooking oil
- Sauté onion and garlic
- Add the minced beef, fish sauce and pepper and cook until color turns light brown
- Add the vegetables and cook for 2-3mins
- Remove from heat and set aside

Wrapping
- For a square shaped wrapper, cut it diagonally to make it smaller and right triangle in shape
- Get a piece and make sure that the longest side of the triangle is at the bottom
- Scoop about tablespoon of the mixture and place it along the bottom of the wrapper
- Fold the wrapper by taking each side covering the mixture
- Roll the mixture up until you get to an inch before the tip of the wrapper
- Wet the tip of the wrapper then fold the rest up
- Continue wrapping the rest of the mixture until you have used all of them

Frying
- Using a deep fryer pan, heat enough oil on a medium heat
- Put in enough pieces of your wrapped lumpia
- Once both sides color turn light to medium brown, remove from heat
- Use a strainer or a paper towel to remove or absorb excess oil before serving

Sauce
Variety of sauces is available like catsup and chili sauce. In this Lumpia, I just used Mama Sita’s Sweet and Sour Sauce Mix (escabeche). Just follow the instructions found at the back of the sachet and you’ll have a sweet and sour taste of the sauce.

Makes an average of 20pcs of Lumpia
