Lumpia or Eggroll Wrapping 101

Here's a simple trick to wrap your springrolls, eggrolls, lumpia shanghai etc. Just follow the steps below and you are on your way to making your own springrolls. You can buy it in two shapes, one is square shape which is available in Asian grocery or Asian sections of supermarkets and the other is round shape commonly sold in the Philippines. If you are a beginner then simply defrost the pastry wrapper first. Then separate the pastry carefully one by one or you'll end up tearing the pastry. I'd drawn the illustrations below, so not perfectly a gifted artist LOL, but at least I made my own effort.


Place square with one corner towards you. Put  2 tbsp of the filling at the center of the pastry. Then fold bottom corner up.

Fold the side corners gently.

Roll tightly and brush the open flap with beaten egg. to seal the rolls.

Note: Prepare your own filling, it can be veggies or purely meat. Wrap and dip fry in hot oil.
