Lumpia or Lumpiang Shanghai is a type of Filipino egg roll. The basic filling
is composed of ground pork along with minced onions, carrots, and
seasonings such as salt and ground black pepper. This recipe post is all
about how to make basic lumpia. Feel free to use this as a baseline.

Lumpia ingredients
This deep fried lumpia recipe still tastes great even if I kept the ingredients
at a minimum. The main protein for this version is ground pork. I also
added carrot for additional sweetness and parsley to make it taste fresh.
It is important to ensure that the flavor of the lumpia filling is flavorful. I

don’t want to rely on the dipping sauce most of the time. Salt, sesame oil,
garlic powder, and ground black pepper are simple ingredients that
provide great results in terms of flavor.
The lumpia wrapper used in this recipe is store-bought. I will talk more
about it later. By the way, eggs are used when making the lumpia filling in
order to bind all the ingredients together. It prevents the meat mixture
from falling apart or separate from each other when frying.
Where to buy lumpia wrapper
Lumpia wrapper is almost always available in the Philippines. Local

markets and supermarkets carry this product.
Here in the US, Filipino and Asian stores sell the wrapper too. There are
many options that you can choose from. My favorite is the thin wrapper. It
is similar to the ones sold in the Philippines. Other options include egg roll
wrappers of different sizes. Use it when you want a thick wrapper for your
spring roll.
Here is a good resource for making lumpia wrapper.
There are also online sellers that you can buy lumpia or spring roll
wrapper from. Amazon is a good source along with some Filipino online
stores in the US.
How to Cook Lumpia

The procedure in cooking lumpia is simple. First is to combine all the filling
ingredients in a bowl, and them mix altogether until well blended. The next
step is to wrap the lumpia mixture in egg roll wrapper. I showed how I did
it in the video below. The final step is to deep-fry it until brown and crispy.
Let’s talk about the first step. You can simply add all the ingredients in a
bowl and mix thoroughly. It can be done the manual way using your
hands. An easier way is to use a stand mixer. Make sure to attach the
dough hook when going this route.
This is a basic recipe. It will give you a good tasting lumpia. However, you
can play around with it by adding more ingredients to bring it up to the
next level. A good example is the addition of seasonings to bring-in more
flavors. Another good suggestion is to add a bit of Italian sausage to the
mixture. You can also try adding veggies such as celery.
Wrapping lumpia is easy. It is something that you can get used to after a
few tries. The tricky part in this process is when using a wide wrapper. The
video below shows my technique on how to wrap lumpia using wide egg
roll wrappers. It is quick and easy. You should try it for yourself.
Deep frying the lumpia has a little trick in order to ensure that the filling
gets completely cooked while not getting the wrapper burnt. It has
something to do with temperature. Make sure that you do not fry the
lumpia on very hot oil. This will quickly brown the wrapper while leaving
the meat mixture still under cooked. Try to fry the lumpia while the oil is
starting to get hot, around 250 F. Let it slowly cook the inside. The wrapper
will gradually brown as it fries. You will know that it is ready when it floats.
By the way, I am assuming that you will follow my lead by also deep frying
the egg rolls.
When it comes to the dipping sauce, I love to dip mine in sweet and sour
sauce. Banana sauce or banana ketchup works too.
Cooking Lumpia in an air fryer

Using an air fryer is also a good way to cook lumpia without using oil. In
fact, it is a healthier option. I usually set the temperature to 370F and air
fry my lumpia for 12 minutes. The cooking time can be extended
depending on how well you want your food done.
The oil from the ground pork also gets extracted during the cooking
process. You will end up with less oil crispy lumpia to munch on.
When using an air frying to cook my lumpia, I usually spray a small

amount of cooking oil on the wrapper. This makes it less dry. It depends
on ones preference.
How to make lumpia wrapper for Lumpiang

Shanghai
Thin lumpia wrapper can be done at home. It is easy to make. The
ingredients are not hard to find too. Chances are, these ingredients can
be in your pantry at the moment.
It only takes flour, cornstarch, salt, and water to make your homemade
lumpia wrapper. I will cover the procedure in one of our future videos.
Panlasang Pinoy Lumpia Recipes

Lumpiang Hubad – its name is literally translated to naked lumpia. It is a
type of fresh lumpia that does not require frying. The veggies are cooked
separately by sautéing or stir-frying with a small amount of protein such
as chicken or pork. There is no wrapper involved here. See recipe here
Noche Buena Lumpiang Shanghai – This is my Family’s special Lumpiang

Shanghai version. My two little girls love it. In fact, they really loved it so
much to the point that they knew how to make one. Both of them knew
the ingredients that goes with the filling. They are also capable of
wrapping each piece manually without the help of a grown-up. I still do
the frying for safety reasons. view recipe
Lumpiang Sariwa with Fresh Lumpia Wrapper – Naked lumpia with fresh
soft wrapper. I love the idea of making your own homemade wrapper. I
included the tutorial in my cooking video so you too can make one at
home. See recipe
I love to have lumpiang sariwa with crushed peanuts on top and some
crushed garlic. These complements the sweet brown sauce.
Fish Lumpia Recipe – Just like ground meats, fish flakes can also be used
to make lumpia. This is the most popular version during the holy week. I
use either bangus (milkfish) or galunggong (round scad) to make it.
Lumpiang Gulay – These are vegetable egg rolls. It is composed of

different kinds of veggies that were sautéed together. The veggies are
then wrapped and deep fried until the wrapper turns golden brown. It
makes a good appetizer to any dish. take a closer look
Chicken Dynamite Lumpia Recipe – Imagine stuffing a lumpia with long

green pepper and ground chicken mixture. The spiciness of the long
pepper makes it somewhat a dynamite on your mouth. This is a good
version for people who loves spicy food. See recipe here
Crab and Corn Pearl Soup and Chinese Spring Rolls – a good appetizer
combination can be soup and spring rolls. The spring rolls in this recipe is
Chinese inspired. This makes use of ground chicken along with Chinese
chives, mushroom, and other interesting ingredients. See recipe here
Turon – Lumpia can also be a dessert or a sweet snack in the form of

turon. Ripe saba banana are dipped in brown sugar and then wrapped. It
is deep fried until golden brown. Sometime, ripe jackfruit is combined with
the banana. I think that the combination is out-of-this-world. See recipe

lumpia wrapper in the supermarket unfortunately the taste of wrapper it
seems its not unsalted? i did not put salt on my engriedients..any
suggestion on how to remove the salty tastbof the lumpia wrapper?thanks

Peterlyn, I am sorry but I am not sure if I got it. Did you mean that you
bought unsalted lumpia wrapper, but it was salty (contrary to the
package details)?
If this is the case, I think that it is easier to buy another wrapper instead
of trying to remove the salty taste from it.

What brands of lumpia wrappers do you recommend to buy in the US? I’ve
been looking and can’t find any I can order online that dont require the
meat to be cooked before wrapping. I’m trying to find a thinner version of
the wrapper because I don’t want a thick one.

What would you suggest for freezing them? Is it best to put them in a
freezer ziplock bag single layer or can you stack them with some space
and with parchment paper? Also how long can you keep them stored in
freezer ? is 3 months the max?
Thank you

Diana, I put it in a single ziplock bag. There is no need to separate it

with parchment paper, but it is always nice to do that.
Yes, for safety reasons do not let it get past 3 months.

bottom end of wrap over the row of meat then fold the ends over toward
the middle then roll the long length of meat up till the end of the wrap
using egg whites to hold it closed. Then cook as usual

I need help! I bought TYJ Spring Roll Pastry online. After I add filling and roll
them up, I cannot get the ends to seal. Water, or egg has not worked. I
have the rice flour skins, too… the kind you can see through. With those, I
know you have to dip them in a plate of water and lay them out to fill. Do
the TYJ skins require the same water treatment? It’s too bad I can’t get an
answer from the place I bought them. I paid $40 for 6 packs of skins… 3
small and 3 large. I’m not letting them dry out. I keep them covered with a
damp cloth. I deep fried one of the small packs and made a sort of potato
chip. At least they didn’t go to waste. Seems like the simplest thing, but I
am hard-pressed for an answer. I found this website and decided to ask
here. Can’t hurt!
Thank you to anyone who can help.

Use paste mixture to seal. Flour and water mixed until paste in texture.
Do not cook the slurry. It will dry n seal the wrapper as you use it.

try using a paste of water or egg missed with flour. doen’t have to be a
thick paste but sticky.

Camellia says
I use bit of cornstarch in water cooked over low heat to form a

translucent paste, and apply with a pastry brush or fingers. I usually
keep it on the stove on low while wrapping, or you could try keeping it
covered with a moist paper towel. If it hardens while you’re wrapping,
just heat it up again and add a little more water.
