Ingredients

• 500 grams ground chicken
• 1 medium, finely chopped onion
• 3 minced garlic cloves
• 1 medium, finely grated carrot
• 3 finely chopped green onions
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 30 pieces lumpia wrappers
• 1 beaten, for sealing egg
• 500 ml, for frying vegetable oil

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine ground chicken, finely chopped onion, minced garlic, grated carrot, and chopped green onions.

Step 2

Add soy sauce, oyster sauce, salt, and black pepper to the mixture. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well combined.

Step 3

To prepare the lumpia, carefully separate the lumpia wrappers, and lay them individually on a flat surface.

Step 4

Place approximately 1 tablespoon of the chicken mixture onto the wrapper, near the lower edge.

Step 5

Fold the sides over the filling, then roll the wrapper tightly up towards the top edge, stopping just before the end.

Step 6

Brush the top edge with a bit of the beaten egg to seal the roll firmly.

Step 7

Repeat the filling and rolling process until all the wrappers and filling are used.

Step 8

Heat vegetable oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat until it reaches around 170°C (340°F).

Step 9

Carefully place a few lumpia at a time into the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pan.

Step 10

Fry the lumpia for about 3-4 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy.

Step 11

Remove them from the oil and drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.

Step 12

Serve the lumpia immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
