Lumpia are the Philippine version of spring rolls. They are tasty finger food, and these are vegetarian too. Ingredients:
1 package lumpia skins, from an asian specialty store |
10 carrots, chopped small |
4 leeks, well cleaned,and chopped small |
6 shallots or 2 onions, chopped small |
sesame oil, dark (or regular oil, but sesame is better) |
salt (try 1 tsp) |
chinese duck sauce or plum sauce (for dipping) |
Directions:
1. Saute chopped carrots, leeks, shallots and salt in sesame oil til the carrots are tender and soft.
2. Use the lumpia skins at either full size or 1/4 size (by cutting larger skins into four squares).
3. Moisten a lumpia skin in water and roll the vegetable mixture into the skin.
4. Repeat with the remaining skins.
5. Bake at 375 on a lightly oiled baking sheet for approx 20-25 minutes or until lightly browned- keep an eye on them, as ovens vary.
6. Serve hot with plum or duck sauce.
7. Enjoy!
