Ingredients

• 500 grams Lean ground chicken
• 1 medium, finely shredded Carrot
• 1 cup, finely shredded Cabbage
• 1 small, finely chopped Onion
• 2 cloves, minced Garlic
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 20 pieces Lumpia wrappers
• 1 beaten (for sealing wrappers) Egg
• 0 (for spraying) Cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F).

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine ground chicken, shredded carrot, shredded cabbage, onion, garlic, soy sauce, black pepper, and salt. Mix until all ingredients are well incorporated.

Step 3

Take one lumpia wrapper and place it on a flat surface. Position it like a diamond, so a point is towards you.

Step 4

Spoon about 1 1/2 tablespoons of the filling mixture near the point of the wrapper that is closest to you. Shape the filling into a small log.

Step 5

Fold the bottom point of the wrapper over the filling, roll tightly halfway through, then fold in the sides towards the center.

Step 6

Continue rolling to enclose the filling. Brush the top edge with beaten egg, then press to seal. Repeat this process with the remaining wrappers and filling.

Step 7

Place the lumpia on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Lightly spray the top of each roll with cooking spray to help it crisp up during baking.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the lumpia are golden brown and cooked through.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.

Step 10

Serve with your favorite dipping sauce, such as sweet chili sauce or vinegar with garlic.
