Bob's Lumpia Shanghai

 4 1 1/2 pound packages ground pork

4 tbsp Garlic

4 teaspoons Salt

4 tblsp Calamansi Soy Sauce

1/4 teaspoon White pepper

1/4 teaspoon Black Pepper

Grated carrot, about 3-4 handfuls

Napp Cabbage, finely shredded (by hand) and then chopped small (about a 1/3 head)

Minced Chinese leeks, green onions

Bamboo Shoots optional (this may have added moisture)

Lumpia Wrappers: Purchase the square wrappers if possible.

350-375 degrees; fry about 4 minutes


Purchase quality ground pork. ( I find the pork at PanAsia to have the perfect fat-to-meat ratio; the ground pork in regular grocers seems to be a bit tough). Crumble the pork by hand into a large mixing bowl, then add all other ingredients, mix with a light hand, and do not mash the mixture, or it can toughen the filling. 

Place 2 tablespoons of filling across the bottom of a square lumpia wrapper, roll tightly, and seal with a flour/water paste. Cut the Lumpia in half with scissors; now you have two Lumpia. Continue until all Lumpia are wrapped; pack the Lumpia into gallon-sized bags in counts of 25.
