Chinese Fresh Lumpia Recipe

Make the filling: Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large wok. Sauté shrimp until pink. Transfer to a platter and set aside.

Heat remaining oil in the same wok. Sauté onions until translucent. Add garlic and sauté until fragrant. Add ground pork and cook until browned. Season lightly with salt and pepper. Add carrots and green beans; cook for 1 minute. Add jicama and mushrooms; cook for another minute. Add cabbage and tofu; toss to mix well. Add water or stock. Cover wok partially and let vegetables steam for 1 minute, or until water or stock has evaporated.

Add shrimp and mix well. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a platter and set aside.

Make the sauce: Place water, soy sauce, sugars, and vinegar in a small saucepan. Boil and cook until sugar dissolves and the vinegar's acidity has mellowed. Add dissolved cornstarch and let mixture thicken. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.

Mix together peanuts and sugar in a small bowl. In another bowl, combine sotanghon and hoti.

Lay a lumpia wrapper on a flat surface. Place a lettuce leaf on the center. Top with 2 to 3 tablespoons filling. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon peanut mixture and 1 tablespoon sotanghon mixture. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon sauce. Fold the bottom of the wrapper then the sides to enclose the filling. Wrap tightly. You can wrap the lumpia with foil, wax paper, or parchment paper, if desired. Repeat with remaining ingredients. Serve warm with extra sauce on the side.
