Ingredients

  • 400 g Minced Meat Beef
  • 30 Spring Roll Pastry Sheets
  • 1 Onion Finely chopped
  • 2 cloves Garlic Minced
  • 1 Carrot Grated
  • 1/2 Cabbage Thinly sliced
  • 2 tbsp Soy Sauce
  • 1 tbsp Oyster Sauce
  • 1 tsp Brown Sugar
  • 1/2 tsp Black Pepper
  • Oil For frying
  • 1 Egg Beaten

Instructions

  • Heat a tbsp of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Cook the beef mince for 5-7 minutes or until browned, stirring occasionally.
  • Add onion and garlic to the pan and continue cooking for 2-3 minutes until the onion is softened.
  • Add grated carrot and sliced cabbage to the pan and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are just tender.
  • Mix soy sauce, oyster sauce, brown sugar, and black pepper in the pan, and stir until well combined. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until heated through.
  • Remove the pan from heat and allow the mixture to cool to room temperature.
  • To make the lumpia, lay a spring roll wrapper flat with one corner facing towards you. Spread a thin line of beef mixture (about a tablespoon) onto the wrapper, leaving a 2cm gap from the edges.
  • Fold the corner nearest to you over the filling, then fold in the sides. Roll the wrapper up tightly, brushing the remaining corner with beaten egg to seal.
  • Repeat the process with the remaining spring roll wrappers and filling.
  • Heat enough oil in a deep frying pan or wok to deep fry the lumpia until golden brown for about 3-4 minutes. Drain on kitchen paper.
  • Serve the beef lumpia hot with sweet chili sauce or your preferred dipping sauce.

Notes

  • Bell peppers or green beans can be added to the filling.
  • The lumpia can be baked in a preheated oven at 200°C for 20-25 minutes until golden brown if desired.
  • Cool the filling to room temperature before assembling the lumpia to avoid the wrapper becoming soggy.
