Delicious! My daughter helped wrap some and ended up with only 17. My kids loved it! I made a homemade sweet and sour to go with it. I'm going to take some to a church fellowship tomorrow. There are a lot of Philippinos in our church, so we'll see how they like them. :)

Very very good! Very easy to do too. I ended up with about 15-16 rolls though. I chopped the veggies in the food processor. I used a pastry brush to brush some water on the ends of the wrappers to seal them. I fried them 3-4 at a time in my deep frier. One of my favorite recipes from this site so far. I've made these with shrimp/pork mixture and they are even better.

I made these with half pork/half shrimp and also a batch with half pork/half ground beef. We preferred the pork/shrimp combo. I doubled the cabbage as suggested by some. Delicious.

Very good and very easy to make. I shred my carrot and cabbage in the food processor and also ground my pork a little finer in the processor, after cooking it first. I made some with chicken the same way and they were also very tasty. I did add some cooked bean noodles and I think it made the recipe even better. I will make this again and again!

This is a great recipe! However, I reccommend adding 1 head of cabbage and 4 medium sized carrots. The extra veggies just seem to add to the flavor and turn out just like I remember them from when I was a child. I also reccommend trying a apple cider vinegar and garlic dipping sauce--4 cloves garlic to 1 cup apple vinegar. Thanks for the great recipe!! :)

This reminded me exactly of the lumpia we used to beg for every year when our family friends made their annual batch. LOVED it! I served it with some home made sweet and sour. Although time consuming, I will triple the recipe and freeze it next time.

well this was a delicious!...but like any other recipe u should season the meat to taste. i also read a review about the filling not holding together but if u minimize the amount u put in the wrapper the problem is fixed!

This was nothing like the lumpia my Philepino neighbors make, but it was still delicious. Meat mixture tasted good, but didn't hold itself together like a traditional filling does. My neighbor suggested adding soaked 'pan', (a bread which can be found at many Asian markets)to the meat after it has been cooked.

This recipe is very good. I read all the reviews ahead of time. So I ommitted the salt as suggested. I put in cabbage, shredded carrots and used more pork than beef. It was very good and I will use the recipe again except I would even use more cabbage and carrots. Thank you - great recipe

I got this recipe from a friend who made these for a gathering we had. Her's were absolutely delicious! Mine, while good, still need some work. Hubby says they get better each time I make them!

I can't believe how easy this was. And fairly quick! From start to dinner table it was only an hour and 1/2. Could only find WonTon wrappers so I guess we had Filipino Won Tons! I fried them in a little oil instead of deep frying them. YUM! I'll certainly make these again!

Excellent!! Loved this recipe. I followed the recipe but made a few adjustments. I used a napa cabbage...about 2c. thinly sliced(will use more next time because it shrinks down), added about 5 sliced shitaki mushrooms while cooking the onion and garlic, and I used already packaged julienned carrots and fresh bean sprouts in addition to all the other ingredients listed. I was able to get 18 lumpia out of all of this! Maybe I filled them more than I should have...but they were incredible!! Cooked perfectly and none fell apart. Used 3 different dipping sauces. Duck Sauce, Mae Ploy(sweet red chili sauce found in an Oriental food market), and "Oriental Dipping Sauce" found on this site. 3 different tastes....with a great lumpia recipe!!

I've tried the other Lumpia recipes on this site and they do not even compare to this one. These turned out delicious! Everyone in my family absolutely loved them. I even froze half of them and cooked them a couple of weeks later and they tasted just as good as the first batch. Thanks for this great recipe!
