ingredients
Special equipment:
steps
- In a large bowl, combine pork, carrot, scallion, garlic, eggs, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly until ingredients are evenly incorporated. Use your hands for best results.
- Create a slurry of cornstarch and water so consistency is that of heavy cream. Transfer filling to a piping bag. Pipe lines of filling into lumpia wrappers and roll, sealing with cornstarch slurry.
- Fill a deep skillet or dutch oven with oil 2 to 3 inches deep and heat to 350 degrees. Cut rolled lumpia into three sections each and fry until cooked inside, 7 to 10 minutes. You will have to do this in batches. Transfer to drain on paper towels.
