Ingredients

• 1 medium Carrot
• 0.5 medium Jicama
• 100 grams Green beans
• 100 grams Cabbage
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 1 small Onion
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce, low sodium
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 large Eggs
• 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
• 1 cup Water
• 6 medium Lettuce leaves
• 2 tablespoons Crushed peanuts
• 2 tablespoons Sugar

Directions

Step 1

Peel and julienne the carrot and jicama. Thinly slice the green beans and cabbage.

Step 2

Mince the garlic and finely chop the onion.

Step 3

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add garlic and onion, sauté until the onion is translucent, about 2 minutes.

Step 4

Add carrot, jicama, green beans, and cabbage to the skillet. Stir-fry for 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.

Step 5

Add soy sauce, salt, and black pepper to the vegetables. Stir well to combine, then remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Step 6

In a mixing bowl, beat eggs and gradually add flour, whisking to avoid lumps. Slowly add water, whisking until smooth to form crepe batter.

Step 7

Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and lightly grease it with a cooking spray or a small amount of olive oil.

Step 8

Pour about 1/4 cup of the crepe batter into the pan, swirling to evenly coat the bottom. Cook for 1-2 minutes or until the edges of the crepe start to lift. Flip and cook for another 30 seconds. Repeat with remaining batter to make 6 crepes.

Step 9

To assemble, place a crepe on a flat surface. Lay a lettuce leaf in the center, then spoon about 2-3 tablespoons of the vegetable filling onto the lettuce.

Step 10

Fold the sides of the crepe over the filling and roll tightly to enclose it.

Step 11

Sprinkle crushed peanuts and a pinch of sugar on top of each fresh lumpia before serving.

Step 12

Serve immediately for best texture and flavor.
