Directions
Filipino Lumpia (Deep-Fried Pork Spring Rolls),This is one of Dale Talde’s (Top Chef) recipes. His mother is Filipino and this recipe is inspired by her cooking when he grew up.,I grew up with lots of Filipino friends and in high school the Filipino Club always made money by selling lumpia for 50 cents each. I’ve always wanted to make them and Culinary Quest 2016 Philippines was the perfect time! I tried two different wrappers and do have a strong opinion! I bought really good spring roll wrappers and then found actual lumpia wrappers. I made a test batch with both. The spring roll wrappers are good, but much thicker and totally sufficient is that’s all that available. If you live somewhere with a Filipino Market, buy real lumpia wrappers! Much thinner, but durable enough to wrap and fry. The crunch is so much better!!! The sauce is terrific. I even found Filipino vinegar for the sauce. 5 big stars Nan!! Thank you!!!
